What was the word?

Brent Earl Ebarle, speller 237, had trouble pronouncing his word, flagitate. He kept getting caught up in the middle.

Dr. Bailly had him repeat it again and again, to make sure it sounded right.

What does it mean? To press or urge with frequent or unreasonable requests or troublesome persistence.

Brent misspelled it and is out.
