Are accoutrement and ziggurat really English words? Accoutrement is even pronounced as French!
As you say, the line is very very blurry.
Japanese loanwords really tickle my humour; バイト "Baito" : a casual, part-time, non-serious job. From the German "Arbeit" which is serious, macro-level employment or exertion.
Given this ... https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48603397 ... I now wonder if the actual corrected estimate from it is even higher at 110K+, which would seem further off.
Also add a keyboard focus state on the continue button.
The green button (which should not exist) was also hidden under Firefox for Android's address bar until I tried to "scroll* to hide it.
I got 93 words (not a native speaker), but the expert/grandmaster words were kinda easy?
