The Consolidated Word List

The Consolidated Word List is a compilation of over 100 Scripps National Spelling Bee word lists dating as far back as 1950. It appears below in four sections totaling 794 pages. It is FREE. There are 23,413 unique words. Parts of speech, language origins, pronunciations, definitions, and sentences are provided for 10,139 (43%) of these words.

Please note that the Consolidated Word List Files posted below were first posted online in early 2004. The Bee has no immediate plans to update the Consolidated Word List.

Log-in: What is this?

 

The Scripps National Spelling hosts three special sections of its Web site.

 

1. Teacher Log-in (also known as School Log-in)

User names and passwords are provided to the educators who officially enroll their schools in the Scripps National Spelling Bee program. These user names and passwords are unique for each school year, so the password from a previous year will not work. Enrollment for the 2012-13 Bee program will open in mid-August.
