When we say the word you must spell:
1. you can ask us to R E A the word;
2. you can ask for the D F I O N of the word;
3. you can ask us to S it in a sentence. You must speak L U and C E because we can’t ask you to R the word! If the spelling is C O T, a judge will N G the bell or say “C ” and you must go back to your seat on stage; if you misspell the word, you are E L T D and you must go sit in the audience.
