Spelling tests, or dictation tests, are examinations that are undertaken by a teacher to test the knowledge of whether or not they are aware of a particular word’s spelling or not.

Dictation words generally describe a set of words that are either difficult to spell or sound different from the way they are spelled. Such words are easy to come by, but may not be words students know the meaning of. The idea behind dictation tests is to improve a student’s spelling game and improve their overall vocabulary. Having a better vocabulary can directly help students taking dictation tests as it means that they often tap into their pool of less frequently used words more often and hence they might know more words. Spelling sight words is an important part of English language education, and its significance is relevant even today.
