This C2 Spanish vocabulary test covers advanced word formation: abstract nouns from adjectives and verbs, negative prefixes, parasynthetic verbs, compounds and word families in a reading text. It is for proficient learners, exam candidates (DELE C2) and teachers who need a reliable, printable assessment.
Use this test after work on Spanish derivation, or as a diagnostic for DELE C2 candidates. Distractors target typical advanced errors: invented suffixes such as -eza or -idad instead of -ez or -itud, wrong prefix assimilation (inrevocable instead of irrevocable), confusion between existing look-alike words (fianza/fiabilidad, desbaratar/abaratar, elogiable/elogioso) and gender clues in context. As follow-up, ask students to build full word families (verb, noun, adjective, adverb) for ten of the roots and use them in their own sentences.
