If the final word that the software displays is the correct one, you can enter a punctuation mark or start
entering the next word.
To enter a punctuation mark:
•
For a period, press
[1]
.
•
For a punctuation mark other than a period, press
[1], [*]
. Then press
[*]
repeatedly
until you
reach the punctuation mark that you want.
To correct the final displayed word if it is not what you intended, use one of these methods:
•
View other matches from the dictionary: With the cursor on the word, repeatedly press the
[*]
key until the word that you want appears. Then select the word.
•
View a list of all the dictionary matches: On a phone with an
[Edit]
key, select
[Edit]
and
Dictionary
. Then select
Matches
. This option is visible only if there is more than one match. On
handsets that do not have an
[Edit]
key, you can press
[Key 1] (Options)
to access the text entry
menu, and find this function.
•
If none of the suggested matches fits, edit the word with the traditional input method: Press
[Key
1]
(
Spell
).
2.4.3
Predictive text input—the XT9 method
XT9 adds word completion and correction to the T9 funtions. This is described based upon the
Nokia E71, which has a QWERTY keyboard, where T9 obviously would not make any sense.
To enable or disable predictive text input:
•
Press
[Fn]+[Space]
to display the text input options.
•
Select
Predictive text
, then
On
or
Off
.
To change the predictive text settings:
•
Press
[Fn]+[Space]
to display the text input options.
•
Select
Settings
.
The following settings are available:
•
Typing correction
: When set to
Medium
, XT9 will correct words based upon similarity.
High
will additionally check for the possibility that you have pressed keys that are close to the desired
ones. If you set this to
Off
, no word correction will occur.
•
Auto word completion
: When this option is turned on, a list of suggested completions will be
displayed after typing a few letters of a word. When it is turned off, you have to type all letters.
Wword completion assumes that one can perceive all proposed word completions; thus, it
requires a lot of practice to use this feature as a visually challenged person.
•
Suggested words
: If one of the two options above is enabled, this determines the maximum
number of words that are proposed.
When writing text while XT9 is turned on, the word proposed for the typed number of letters is used by
default. You can use the
[Down]
key to get to the list of proposed alternatives, and select one of them by
pressing the
[Right]
key, or the
[Up]
key to get to the text that you have just entered, and press
[Right]
to use this text, and add it to the dictionary.
