cantankerously moribund

I occasionally get the sense that my vocabulary exceeds the typical, so what is the typical?

I then found this article that said the average person knows twelve to twenty thousand words.

I then searched for a vocabulary test that would estimate how many words I know and found this one.

I scored 40626.

Wow! I took the test, and I scored higher that I would have thought!

45954 words
Congratulations! You scored ###!
You scored as knowing approximately 45954 words and word meanings. This officially qualifies you as "college material."
