    This year,many schoolchildren across the United States have taken part in local and state spelling competitions. The young competitors could spell words that even some adults may never have heard of.

    More than 280 local winners earned the right to compete in this year's National Spelling Final,which took place from May 28 to June 3 near Washington,D.C.,at the National Harbor in Maryland.Most competitors in the National Spelling Final were between the ages of 12 and 14.But one competitor was less than half that age—five-year-old Edith Fuller.She won an area spelling competition in her home state of Oklahoma.The five-hour competition lasted 37 rounds.Edith correctly spelled words

    like sevruga（一种俄罗斯鱼子酱）,jacamar (a kind of bird);and Nisei (a child of Japanese immigrants).Jnana,a Sanskrit（梵语）word made the youngest person qualify（获得资格）for the National Spelling Final.

    When she was just four,Edith surprised her parents when she was able to spell the word "restaurant."At that moment,her mom and dad realized their child might be something special there.Edith is homeschooled,so her parents are able to spend a little more time teaching her to spell.

    Her mom spoke with the Media about the benefits of homeschooling Edith."We have the freedom to answer her questions,to help her advance at her own pace,"she said.Now,Edith is already being called a "spellebrity（拼写达人）."
