1. A method for managing speech dialog of a speech system, comprising:
- receiving a first utterance from a user of the speech system;
determining a first list of possible results from the first utterance, wherein the first list includes at least two elements that each represent a possible result;
analyzing an orthography of the at least two elements of the first list to determine an ambiguity of the elements; and
generating a speech prompt to the user that dynamically requests a partial orthography of the first utterance based on the ambiguity.
