It could be replaced by a parametrized query that ask the user for the string.

The string is a sequence of symbols by definition. The string 'brown' has nothing special.
The spelling is a sequence of symbols by definition. So the info isn't coming from the particular string 'brown'.

It is more like:
All(x)(String(x) -->Spelling(x,x))
String("brown")



Spelling("brown","brown")

But one could say:
All(x)(String(x) <--->Spelling(x,x)).

Your representation of strings is redundant. Translations from one language to another are not made symbol by symbol.
