How to Play Gap Fill
Gap Fill is a free online fill-in-the-blank game that tests English grammar and vocabulary in context. Each sentence has a missing word, and you choose the one that fits best — exactly the skill tested in many English exams.
Step by step
- Read the whole sentence, including the gap.
- Look at the answer choices offered.
- Pick the word that fits the meaning and the grammar of the sentence.
- Get instant feedback, and score a point for each correct choice.
Tips to choose the right word
- Read past the gap to the end — the rest of the sentence usually decides the answer.
- Check the grammar around the gap: does it need a noun, verb, adjective or preposition?
- Eliminate options that don’t fit the meaning before choosing.
Who it’s for
Sentences run from CEFR Pre-A1 to B1, so Gap Fill is ideal for beginner and elementary ESL learners and for exam-style practice in class.
