Do you guys know if Alexa can register a custom user said word that is no a AMAZON.Something, now that AMAZON.literal (which was a catch all for any word) is deprecated.

For example for a skill like "wikipedia". Whereby I want to be able to say "Hey alexa, wikipedia {word}" without having to have a custom slot type with all words on wikipedia. Would that be possible ?

That is a common concern, so Amazon published this blog post to address it:
