Adding sounds to a test

QUESTION
Is there any way of adding small bits of sound to tests? Wanted to
create spelling tests.
ANSWER
 The easiest way is to create YouTube or Vimeo videos which are sound
only (no picture). In multiple choice and slide tests, when you click to add
an image, you can choose to add a video instead (link at top left of image
upload dialog).

 It is also possible to embed audio clips but you have to host the
audio files yourself (you can't upload them to thatquiz.org).  If you
are comfortable doing this, place a link to your externally hosted
audio file within a multiple choice test or other test you design.
You'll need an up-to-date web browser. Try Google Chrome.
