spelling words
Study list terms
Spelling words are vocabulary items assigned for students to memorize and reproduce correctly, typically as weekly lists in elementary education.
The term evokes childhood homework and Friday quizzes: I need to practice my spelling words tonight.
By extension, any set of words one is expected to know how to spell.
