1. A computer-implemented method of enabling a speech recognition system to recognize entities that have arbitrary text, the method comprising:
- identifying an entity having arbitrary text;
detecting that the entity has an identifiable pattern of characters;
prompting a user to assign an alternative natural phrase that corresponds with the entity; and
storing the alternative natural phrase that corresponds with the entity to thereby textually enter the entity upon later capturing of the corresponding alternative natural phrase.

Abstract
A method and system for enabling a speech recognition system to recognize entities having arbitrary text. The method includes identifying an entity having arbitrary text from a user and detecting that the entity has an identifiable pattern of characters. The speech recognition system prompts the user to assign an alternative natural phrase that corresponds with the entity. The alternative natural phrase is stored in a dictionary to thereby textually enter the entity upon capturing the corresponding natural phrase.

12. A speech recognition system that recognizes entities that have arbitrary text, the system comprising:
-
a speech recognition engine configured to identify an entity having arbitrary text;
an entity detection subsystem configured to detect that the entity has an identifiable pattern of characters;
a natural phrase engine configured to prompt a user to assign an alternative natural phrase that corresponds with the entity; and
a dictionary configured to store the alternative natural phrase that corresponds with the entity. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A computer-implemented method for entering entities that have arbitrary text using a speech recognition system, the method comprising:
-
capturing an alternative natural phrase as spoken by a user;
accessing a dictionary to retrieve an entity having arbitrary text that corresponds with the captured alternative natural phrase; and
textually entering the entity having arbitrary text. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
