Jimmy Kimmel vs. National Spelling Bee Winner Sukanya Roy (VIDEO)

WATCH: Jimmy Kimmel Challenges National Spelling Bee Winner

Sukanya Roy may have thought her days of competitive spelling were over when she won the 84th Scripps National Spelling Bee on June 2nd, but apparently her fight was just beginning.

For eight years, Jimmy Kimmel has been inviting the winner of the bee to face him in a one-on-one spelling battle royale. The Scripps Bee may have tradition and intense competition on its side, but the Kimmel Bee has its own unique challenge, pronunciation. How can you spell a word, if you don't understand what word Guillermo is saying?

This is what separates the men from the little girls. See Parts 1 & 2 below to find out if Sukanya has what it takes to defeat Jimmy.
