# How to spell an uncommon word?

Sometimes, Voice In may struggle to transcribe uncommon words, such as a company's name. In these cases, you can dictate the word by spelling it out, one letter at a time. 

For example, to type "candy," say each letter quickly: "C-A-N-D-Y."

To capitalize the first letter, say: "Capitalize next C-A-N-D-Y," and it will type "Candy."

Note: Capitalize next is a [voice command in English](https://dictanote.co/voicein/voicecommands/en/). If you are not dictating in English, use the equivalent in voice command for that language.

If you use this uncommon word frequently, create a voice command for it. Refer to the Custom Voice Commands linked below for how to create a custom voice command.

```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
