3 Bay Area students made it to the 2023 Scripps National Spelling Bee Finals Thursday night. One student finished in third place, and the other two tied for fifth.
Chintanaboina and Subramanian tied for fifth place, which they shared with Michigan seventh-grader Aryan Khedkar.
Subramanian was eliminated after misspelling “crenel,” meaning an indentation in the battlement of a fort or castle used to shoot or fire missiles through. And Chintanaboina was knocked out for spelling “pataca,” which is the currency of Macau, incorrectly. Also from California this year was eighth-grader Arth Dalsania from Camarillo Academy of Progressive Education in Camarillo, which is around 50 miles north-west from Los Angeles. This year's champion was Florida eighth-grader Dev Shah, who won by correctly spelling"psammophile." A psammophile is an organism which prefers or thrives in sandy soils or areas.
