unintelligible words/custom symbols/PCC

[Yvan Rose]

Hi again Amy,

Here is a good suggestion, thank you. Could you please send me more information about additional use cases (from the same chart where you took your screenshot, I would imagine? We will then see how we can integrate these symbols as part of our transcription system.

Thank you very much!

Yvan
