I'm getting a big objection from others, so I removed espace. I don't know why my source listed it and why it's not showing as an incorrect word when typing on my computer. It underlines all unknown phrases with red. But whatever, I see it isn't known.
Your title is misleading, given that 'conversation' is actually a category emphatically *not* listed in your source, which is about being able to read newspapers and talk in the workplace. As soon as you realise you're looking for words you might see in the Wall Street journal it's a lot easy, but this is absolutely not a list of the most common words to hear in conversation, and your source does not claim to be that.
An extremely exasperating but equally entertaining exercise, eventhough not effortless, an enormous endeavour even, eventually I might endure it again.
This was so tough! It was almost like no e-words existed! Perhaps because English isn't my native tongue, they would not come to me as easily. Usually I do just fine on word quizzes though.
Ended up with 43.. missed the basic each and every, but got ethnic and ethics, (and enterprise, which scored higher than those too, but is slightly more unusual imo)
