confirm it, or press 0 to add a space.
If the word is not correct, press * repeatedly to view the matching words

changing the writing language gives you access to characters in a different
order.

characters, for example e-mail or web addresses, you may need to change
the writing language. To change the writing language, select Options >
Writing language , and a writing language that uses Latin characters.
Antennas
Note: Your device may have internal and external antennas. As with
any radio transmitting device, avoid touching the antenna unnecessarily
when the antenna is in use. Contact with such an antenna affects the
communication quality, may cause the device to operate at a higher power
level than otherwise needed and may reduce the battery life.
