What is another word for cloze?

Pronunciation: [klˈə͡ʊz] (IPA)

Cloze tests are commonly used in language learning and assessment, and in such tests, certain words are replaced with blanks, which the test-taker needs to fill in. The word "cloze" itself can be replaced with synonyms such as "gap-fill", "fill-in-the-blanks", or "completion". In educational contexts, "cloze exercise" or "cloze task" may be used instead to refer to this type of activity. In linguistics research, "deleted-item test" or "omission test" are also possible substitutes. Whatever the term used, the objective of a cloze test remains the same: to evaluate the test-taker's language proficiency, comprehension, and ability to use contextual clues.
