How can I make applescript voice recognition listen for any word? This is what I have so far:

tell application "System Events"
    keystroke "c" using {command down}
end tell

tell application "iCal" to activate

tell application "System Events"
        keystroke "n" using {command down}
    keystroke "v" using {command down}
    keystroke return
end tell

I would like to substitute the copy on the first line to listen for any words.

    end tell
    

    Speakable items have to be enabled first:
