Add new words to the dictionary
If you encounter a word that predictive text does not recognize, a question mark (?)
follows the word and Spell appears in the bottom center of the display.
Select Spell, enter your new word using the keypad, and select Save. The word is added
to the dictionary and to the message that you are writing. When the dictionary is full,
the most recent addition replaces the first.
