I dont know the answer to this, does anyone? I was typing a text to my girlfriend earlier and wanted to say my back was sore, when i did SORE it gave me ROSE and when I scrolled through it had 7 alternatives - POSE SORE PORE SORD ROSE ROPE POPE.
So I started thinking, what key combinations would give the mose different 4 letter words? |

Give up, Sunshine
I don't think I'm amazing or anything, but predictive text just can't seem to handle my golden stream of consciousness.

Boffo, according to predictive text (and a vague mention in a Douglas Adams book) |

Having written T-9 and predictive text generation software for a couple of phones, you will find different phones produce different results. It all depends on the dictionary _________________ uoznnz ufnl vhg kilcrnz |

I hate predicted text. I once sent a message to my mom saying I was going to a riot (meant to text race) |

I was just typing a text involving the word ACRE and my phone went through the following 8 words - CASE CARE BASE CARD BARE BARD CAPE ACRE. Bizarrely that made me think of this thread, which I think I read over a year ago....

RIOT and RACE aren't even using the same keys... so no matter what you wouldn't have gotten race, right? |

All I know is if I text 'fancy a pint'
first it says 'fancy a riot'
then it says 'fancy a shot'
So we normally start with shots then move onto pints.
