Wordy

Kai asked me the very pertinent question at the weekend: how many words do I know?

According to Wikipedia a 6 year-old English speaker knows 10,000 - 14,000 words and learns 5 - 10 new words a day.

So, as a bilingual 7 year old he's probably well up to this level. Sadly most the new words he learns are the names of obscure lizards and profanities.
