suitable word. (The word may change as you type.)

ABC Mode

In its default mode, also known as ABC or multi-tap
entry, you press keys one, two, three, or four times to
enter the letters you see on the keypad. For example,
press once for "a," twice for "b", or three
times for "c"; or press
"q," three times for "r," or four times for "s."
Press the corresponding keys repeatedly until
the correct letter appears. (For example, to
enter the word "Bill," press
three times,
times again.) (If you make a mistake,
press to erase a single character. Press
and hold to erase an entire word.)
By default, the first letter of an entry is capitalized
and the following letters are lower case. After
entering a character, the cursor automatically
advances to the next space after two seconds or
when you enter a character on a different key.
Characters scroll in the following order:
