I just heard (unfortunately didn't see) that one of the words used in the Spelling Bee was 'Basenji'.

Yeah, it doesn't seem hard enough of a word for the spelling bee. They could have used any one of a dozen common basenji names though. I don't think there was one person who spelled Medjai right the first time, and only half even pronounce it right. There are a couple movies and books with Medjai in it, so it's not that rare.
3/3
