# Add an alert word
|
|
|
|
Zulip allows you to define alert words and phrases that notify you as if you
|
|
were [@-mentioned](/help/at-mention-a-team-member) by another user whenever the
|
|
alert word is included in a message sent to a stream that you are subscribed to.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Alert words will be highlighted within messages, and you will be alerted in
|
|
accordance with your [notification settings](/#settings/notifications).
|
|
|

|

|
|
wish to be notified for into the **New alert word** field.

|
|
Alert words/phrases are matched case-insensitive, which means you don't
|
|
have to care about capitalization when defining them.

|
|
**Add alert word** button.

|
|
appear in the **Add a new alert word** section, confirming the success of the
|
|
addition of the specified alert word.

An alert word can be removed by clicking the trash (<i
|
|
class="icon-vector-trash"></i>) icon to the right of the particular
|
|
alert word.
