    Hi,

    Let's say I have a simple 3-gram LM with only 10 words: zero, one, two, three,
    four, five, six, seven, eight, nine.

    And a phonetic dictionary with 12 entries:
    zero <pronuntiation1>
    one(1) <pronuntiation1>
    one(2) <pronuntiation2>
    one(3) <pronuntiation3>
    two <pronuntiation1>
    ...
    nine <pronuntiation1> </pronuntiation1></pronuntiation1></pronuntiation3></pronuntiation2></pronuntiation1></pronuntiation1>

    Will the decoder use all the phonetic pronuntiations for word "one" or the
    round brackets are treated as usual characters and the decoder will say: "I
    don't have the word <one(1)> in the LM, therefore I won't include it in the
    search graph"? </one(1)>

    This is the case where it's easier to try than to ask ;)
