As far as all the über-arcane words go, you either know them or you don't, so it's a no-brainer.

For me, the really tricky questions were the antonym pairs with one having a grapheme that is a synonym for its partner. For example, at first blush the pair 'truckle/withstand' is very garden-pathy. Truckle means "toady" but it also puts in mind "suffer" and then "tolerate" which prepared me to see "withstand" as a synonym.

I also paused on 'dissimulation/hypocrisy' for a long time before clicking 'opposite'. My reasoning was: Hypocrisy is demonstrative, dissimulation is disguised. It was wrong.
