Never heard about a spelling bee until now. Okay, maybe I've read about it somewhere before, but nowhere locally. So either there are no spelling bees here, or I'm in the wrong place at the wrong time to get such information.

Really?  It's basically just the name for a spelling competition.  I'm sure you've been in them before, they probably just have a different name over there. :P

Where I am at I have only heard of them in elementary school. After that I didn't of them again unless we talked about it. And they were usually only held in class. I was so good. Ah the good old days........ ;D

Yeah, I was always a great speller as well. XD  I still remember the words back in elementary school that I choked on:

"cuckoo", "eccentricity" and "Daubentonia madagascariensis" XD

I still say the last one isn't even English, it's Latin, but oh well. :P  We went on a class trip to a museum at one point and a bunch of people were obsessed with that thing, since it's also known as "aye aye". ::) XD

Nope, no spelling competitions. Just spelling tests in school, which I always excelled at. :D Can't remember which, if there was any, word I choked on.

I was talking about Dutch spelling tests ofcourse. Probably had those in English too, and probably also did very well at those, but I have no distinct memory of that. ::)

I missed "jonquil." :P

I'd never heard of it before! They just put me in the spelling bee without giving me one of those study packets that everyone else got. :P I spelled it "gianquil." :P

What the fopmuffin? ???  Is jonquil even English? >:(

I would have asked for another word. :P

Rosella

They had an entire category on words in Spanish though, so I don't think they cared. :P Also, I think that was a pretty bad move considering people who are native Spanish speakers/take Spanish have an unfair advantage against us Frenchies. :P They had like two French words, one of which being "bon-bon." XD
