Does the Japanese really say "how to spell", or does it say something more like "what to call"?

綴り means "spelling", "way of writing", "orthography"
Japanese sentence looks somewhat strange to me, I think we need a native speaker here.

Adopting, modifying ("spell" -> "refer to"), and unlinking from Japanese ( http://tatoeba.org/eng/sentences/show/75739 ).
