Adding words and phrases to the word prediction dictionary

Add frequently-used names, acronyms, and even phrases to the word prediction

dictionary to easily find them in the suggestion list.

Type even faster when you create text shortcuts to words and phrases. Instead of

typing "Talk to you later", save a few keystrokes by adding the ttyl shortcut. In

your message or email, just type "ttyl", and then tap the spacebar to enter the

complete phrase.

1. Go to Settings, and then tap Language & keyboard.

2. Tap HTC Sense Input.

3. Tap Personal dictionary > .

4. Enter a word or phrase, and then enter its text shortcut. Be sure to remember

this shortcut, including the uppercase and lowercase letters you've typed.

5. Tap OK.

While you're entering text using the Standard keyboard layout, tapping a

suggested word that’s not in the dictionary (usually the first word shown in the

suggestion list) automatically stores it.
