I'd say that almost all of these are used regularly. I hadn't realised they were fossilised words, so perhaps I've become an old fossil myself...

I think you have become a fossil over the years…Today’s young generations don’t speak like that or use those “fossil words”. Maybe, if the had lived in nineteen century, who knows… Not everybody moves along together the times. Times are changin’, as Bob Dylan sang.

Fossil here has meaning that what was once in common usage is now just used in once specialised sense so that specialised usage is in a sense a fossil of that wider usage in older times

I'm so happy I now know my English level. I had no idea about the language grading system before my IELTS exam, and it wouldn't have ever crossed my mind, anyway, that I'm this advanced aka C1. I used to watch other English teaching videos, but they were all tremendously easy to the point of boredom or unmotivation. Your videos, on the other hand, are very challenging. I genuinely benefit and enjoy myself watching them.
