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 bottom center 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.
