Tales from grading finals

I appreciate that English is not easy and that my students are pretty much all non-native English speakers.  Words are very often written phonetically.  Today I came across a word that baffles me.  It's in an answer to Type A/B personality:
Type A pattern - idintifining examption, edoviteraork thinking about deadline and time construction no relixed in the life
Besides the rest of the word salad, I am trying to figure out "edoviteraork."

    I would say some version of "evoke."

    I used to think I was good at word scrambles but this one, um, sucks.
