The officer dictates a sentence containing the word 'freedom.' What is the correct spelling?

Correct answer

freedom

  1. A freedem
  2. B freedom
  3. C fredom
  4. D freadom

Why this is the answer

FREEDOM is spelled F-R-E-E-D-O-M (double 'e,' then 'd-o-m'). It is a key civics vocabulary word on the USCIS writing test, appearing in sentences about American values and the First Amendment. Common misspellings to avoid: 'fredom' (missing an 'e'), 'freedem,' 'freadom.' The official USCIS reading and writing vocabulary list includes 'freedom' and 'free' — practicing these words helps applicants write civics sentences correctly during the naturalization interview.
