Competitors in the Scripps National Spelling Bee are trying to adjust their preparation so they don't get tripped up by onstage, multiple-choice vocabulary questions. The high-stakes vocabulary portion of the bee has only been around since 2021, and last year it led to some surprising eliminations. Former speller Navneeth Murali says the current spellers he's mentoring have been preparing for the vocabulary portion all year.
