Typical ASR vocabulary size for English is about 64K words.
If you are unsatisfied with these, use Finnish or Turkish. The vocabulary there is unlimited, for all practical purposes.
Even English can do better than 64K words - use suffixes, as Turkish people do. "Correctless horse batteryness staplenesslessness".
Now you are in the 80 bits for 4 words territory.
