No skipping words — every word must be attempted in order.
Only the meaning and an example sentence are given — no spelling hints.
Each word is timed; the clock starts when you hear the word.
Back navigation is disabled and keyboard auto-suggestions must be off.
Answers flagged as predictive text / autofill are reviewed and may be disqualified.
