Abstract:
A method of disambiguating an input into a handheld electronic device includes, for example, detecting an ambiguous input, generating a number of prefix objects corresponding to the ambiguous input, generating a result, for at least a portion of prefix objects of the result, generating an output set of prefix objects, determining if the quantity of the prefix objects in the result is fewer than a predetermined quantity, and if it is determined that the quantity of the prefix objects is fewer than the predetermined quantity adding as an orphan prefix object to the output set at a position corresponding with a relatively low frequency a prefix object for which a corresponding word object is not identified.
