Word completion and dictionaries
If word completion is activated, the device suggests suitable
endings for the words that you start writing. Word
completion is based on a built-in dictionary. When you enter
characters, the device searches its dictionary for words
starting with these characters.
You can select to use dual dictionaries to allow the device to
search from the dictionary of the second language if it cannot
find a suitable word in the first language dictionary.
The dictionary can learn new words automatically from the
text you have entered. Text entered in password fields is not
saved in the dictionary.
