If only I understand what you mean. You can just make all the values in the
dictionary lower, upper or capitalized. Then if you want take an input or
whatever you want to do with it just use .lower() or .upper() or .capitalized()
to convert it to what is in the dictionary. Maybe someone has a better way to
do it :)
