Zu diesem Zweck bedient man sich einer Buchstabiertafel als Hilfsmittel. Dabei werden einzelne Buchstaben durch Worte ersetzt, deren Anfangsbuchstabe für den genannten Buchstaben steht. Wikipedia kann man z.B. so buchstabieren: Wilhelm Ida Kaufmann Ida Paula Emil Dora Ida Anton.
Es sind verschiedene Buchstabiertafeln in Gebrauch, die sich z.T. national unterscheiden.
