Abstract
In response to determining that a first series of user inputs corresponds to a first character string, the computing device outputs, for display at a display device, the first character string. In response to determining that the first character string does not match a word in a lexicon and in response to determining that the first character string ends with a word delimiter, the computing device replaces the first character string with a second character string. After receiving the first series of user inputs, the computing device receives a second series of user inputs. In response to determining that the second series of user inputs corresponds to a third character string, the computing device outputs the third character string. The computing device determines, based at least in part on the first and second series of user inputs, a fourth character string and outputs, for display, the fourth character string.
