Using T9
®
Mode
T9 Word recognizes commonly used words for the numeric
sequence of key presses and inserts the word into your message.
T9 Word is much faster than the traditional method of text entry
(Abc) and requires only one key press per letter of the word that
you’re spelling.
1. While composing a text message, press the Left soft key,
then select T9Word .
2. For practice, enter the word “ Samsung ” by pressing each
of the following keys only once:
T9 Word recognizes that the most commonly used word for
the numeric sequence you just entered is “Samsung.”
If more than one word shares the same numeric sequence,
T9 Word provides the most commonly used word. Press
to display other words, if available.
Note: To enter a space, press the key. To enter a period, press the
key. These key functions apply to both T9 Word and Abc modes. (For
other symbols, see “Entering Symbols” on page 34.)
As you press each key, the displayed letters change.
When you complete the key sequence, T9 Word recognizes
that the most commonly used word for the key sequence
you just pressed is “Samsung.”
Note: To enter a space, press the key. To enter a period, press the
key. (For other symbols, see “Entering Symbols” on page 34)
Adding Words to T9 Word
The T9 Word dictionary may not
contain an obscure word, such as the
latest technical jargon or slang. If you
find you cannot enter a particular
word in T9 Word mode, you can add
the word to the T9 Word dictionary.
1. While composing message
text or a text memo, press the
Left soft key, then select Add T9 Word . The Add T9 Word
screen appears in the display.
Note: The Add T9 Word screen is locked into Abc text entry mode.
2. Enter your new word using Abc text entry key sequences.
(For more information, see “Using Abc Mode”.)
