Homophones they are called, viewer discretion is advised. Do not say this at home.

I was thinking there was gonna be a weird i, or silent letter in there.
AngeloSchilling
kid needs to listen to more Kendrick Lamar
ArsenalThePhoenix
there's no way ethiopians pronounce it like that lol
OverMyDadBody
This is the way to turn the slur around, btw!!!
SmooveDoober
I thought the same exact thing, but I feel like it wouldn't go over well, especially in today's racial climate.

"Negus" and "numnah" were the two funniest spelling bee videos I've ever seen.
ViolenceInherentintheSystem
Some Negus that you don’t wanna try
MrJelle
But it's not a homophone. E and I sound clearly different. Kinda forced.

Negan from walking dead
Immathrowawayyeet
Ok but now say it real fast in a conversation.
ekzeko
The E in Cedar, sounds like he pronounces it for Negus. I'm guessing its a followed by 1 or 2 consonnants thing.
ekzeko
But the E in feral doesn't... But the second E in Cerebral does... but not the second E in Celebrity... I hate this language.
SomeGuyWhoSaysStuff
Why would you even give this word to a kid for a spelling bee?
artifactcreature
Pretty sure they’re pronouncing it wrong too. In Star Trek DS9, it was pronounced nay-gus.
DunnowForgot
I think televised spelling bees like this are torture.
spoileddentist
You know he was trying so hard to not spell it as we thought he would. He would rather lose. Kind of sweet.

Just noticed "rustle" looks like the original guess.

Those are the free letters they give you for the final puzzle. You then guess a few letters and make your solving final guess.

That judge is a bastard for putting this kid under so much pressure
TheWarHymn
He pronounced it wrong too apparently.
68people
The sentence he used! The Negus ruled Ethiopia for a century, come on!
SocialTwerker69
The "wrong" thing in this situation is that the uttering of the wrong sound from the mouth of the wrong skin colour is considered as racist.
BoltgunHeresy
Probably wanted to make sure he understood the word was "negus" and not "magus".
zeratul183
Ya I thought it was cause pronunciation was a bit off at first and needed to make sure he was doing that right.
Wmcmwa
Say it again. Louder.
RexFury
yeah that part was weirrrddd
MaxeMan5126
I'm pretty sure they did that so that there knew he wasn't going to use the wrong one. That's why they enunciated the U when saying it back.
bripi
The judges don't pick the words, they are drawn from a pool. They might feel uncomfortable, but just "doin the job". FUCK hate bees.
Inkliest
I’m not going to fuck bees out of love or hate.
SuavessentSlim
I have never ever heard a judge insist the contestant repeat the word let alone “louder for everyone to hear”. That’s intentional bullshit.
CrypticalEnvelopement
It's not about the word, it's the "say it louder. Say it again. And again" breaking his concentration and making him feel more uncomfortable
nebuchadnezzarispooping
I dont think you watched the video then!! It's the fact judge made the kid repeat the word 3 times, he is a kid ffs
karcain
or, heres an idea, curate the pool before hand so that isnt an option to be selected
anengineerandacat
Eh it's a spelling bee and a legitimate word; maybe folks shouldn't be such snowflakes.
ekzeko
Wegus, if you will.
VodkaReindeer
It's not tho. You can't use words that sound like nigga anymore even if they're from a foreign language. That'll get you fired.

This is glorious. That's what ACTUALLY happened there. And if Picard is from our future, and is into archaeology, should have gotten it!
HighSorcerer
He did get it, just took him a minute.
OverMyDadBody
Correction, he is from an alternative timeline separated from ours in 1987 (first episode of TNG was aired then)
