What are the rules for EVTS (AWS Transcribe) terms?

EVTS terms must follow AWS Transcribe requirements:

General rules

  • Do not include digits (0–9); spell out numbers instead
  • Do not use unsupported special characters
  • Do not start with a hyphen

Acronyms

  • Use periods between letters (for example, F.B.I.)
  • For plural acronyms, add a space before “s” (for example, A.B.C. s)

Multiple words

  • Enter words with spaces; the system formats them internally

Character limits

  • Term: up to 30 characters
  • Display As: up to 50 characters
