Like to figure it out initially or just for a quick reference to make sure you're not making a fool of yourself? If the former, probably 1. If the latter, probably like a 6 or 7.

@UndeadPrivateer: Not a fool of myself, just wonder if other use it like me so I'm not alone lol.

@ScarletShadowsxP: Oh I just mean like, if you haven't encountered some word very much and you're not 100% sure what a word means you could either get a paper dictionary, go on google or just wing it and hope you got it right(which can easily lead to you making a fool of yourself, because humans are not infallible and you may be wrong). For 99.9% of those cases I go on google and search stuff up real quick to confirm, it only takes a few seconds.

But, if I've never seen a word before I tend to go for context clues to determine its meaning unless it's something particularly abstract or specific. I don't do a lot of google searching for that.

@UndeadPrivateer: Okay?

@ScarletShadowsxP: Just clarifying, you sounded like you were confused.

@UndeadPrivateer: I didn't get what point you were trying to make. like I said I didn't make this post to fool myself or fool anyone. I just wanted to see who is likely to do the same habits that is all.

@ScarletShadowsxP: Which I did, I explained my google searching habits.
