Related to dyktować (“to dictate”)

Pronunciation

IPA^(key): /dɨkˈtan.dɔ/

Noun

dyktando n

An exam where participants write down text that is read aloud.

Usage notes

While the object of a dyktando is to test spelling ability, as in a spelling bee, the execution is different: the exam uses a longer text that fits on a few pages of handwriting instead of single words, all participants write down the same text, and are required to remain silent during the exam.
