I always wonder how spelling bee scenes in shows get translated when dubbed into other languages. Maybe they’re turned into some other kind of academic competition?
It’s just still a spelling bee. They’ll find some fitting term to call it and that’s that. Everyone knows the show is set in a different country anyways. The concept is intuitive enough, even if it’d be very easy in most languages.
There’s interesting! However, as English is not my mother tongue, I have no idea how to pronounce it even with the phonetics 🤣
English is my mother tongue, and I’m also unclear about how to pronounce it. Skew-oh-morf?
Fun fact: English is one of the only languages where spelling bees are a thing.

Anyone have any insight?

It should be pronounced skew-O- morph, Q after an S usually makes a K sound. Pretty sure it’s a hold over from Latin, for example Populesque.
