HOW TO PLAY
1

Contestants line up and take turns approaching the front to receive a word from the moderator.

2

The moderator reads the word aloud, optionally using it in a sentence or giving its definition on request.

3

The contestant spells the word aloud, one letter at a time, without writing it down.

4

If the spelling is correct, the contestant returns to the line for the next round; if incorrect, they are eliminated from the competition.

5

Words increase in difficulty as rounds progress and fewer contestants remain.

6

The last contestant remaining after all others are eliminated is declared the winner.
