Isn't the same way than for every dictionary? Rolling dices and check the resulting index until it matches the word you're looking for. I mean.. how else could it be?
Somehow I imagine you rolling dices n smoking cigars haha

The cigar helps to cope, this searching method can be a little time consuming...

That's not how phonetic alphabet dictionaries work. We have an arbitrary order of the characters that everyone learns as a child. From there, it's perfectly predictable where a word will be in the dictionary.
I'm asking this question because they have characters that people are unfamiliar with and would therefor not know the order of.

But then how you do with the dices?
..I was just trolling :P

As far as I know, they do have to use dice, but probably not.
