Abstract
Features are disclosed for determining a definition or value of a nonstandard term. A user utterance may be processed into one or more candidate transcriptions. An interpretation of the utterance can be generated from the transcriptions. If the transcription includes a word, phrase, or term that is not recognized or is used in a nonstandard way, one or more data stores may be queried regarding the proper value or definition of the term. If a definition or value is not available in the data stores, the user may be prompted to provide one. The user-supplied definition can be saved for future use, and may be used as a general definition of the term for other users.
