Capitalisation

When spelling a word for someone it is sometimes necessary to let the person know when letters need to be written in CAPITALS and when they need to be written small. There's a guide to capitalisation here.
"How do you spell UNESCO please?""Capital U-N-E-S-C-O."
"How do you spell T-Online please?""Capital T dash capital O small n-l-i-n-e."
"How do you spell 1&1 Profi please?""The number one then an ampersand another one, followed by capital P small r-o-f-i."
