Add new words to the dictionary
If you encounter a word that predictive text does not recognize, a
question mark (?) follows the word and Spell appears in the lower
left of the display.
Select Spell, enter your new word using the keypad, and select Save. The
word is added to the dictionary and to the message that you are writing.
Keep these factors in mind when adding words:
• New words that you accept by selecting Save, the 0 key, or deleting
the space between two words are saved to the dictionary.
• Depending on the language and the length of the words, you may be
able to add hundreds of words to the dictionary.
• When the dictionary is full, the most recent addition replaces the first.
