Abstract
A communication support system dynamically determines and presents to a conference participant the phonetic spelling for the proper pronunciation of a word associated with an individual engaging in a conversation with that conference participant prior to or during the establishment of the call, conference, or other communication session between the conference participant and the individual. The system receives an identifier that is associated with the identification or a device of that individual. The system retrieves the word associated with the individual based on a established correspondence between the identifier and the word, and maps the identifier to a region-of-origin. The system selects a set of entries that correspond different pronunciations of the word to different regions-of-origin, and presents, on a device of the conference participant, the proper pronunciation of the word from a particular entry of the set of entries that corresponds to region-of-origin.
