First Claim
1. A method of displaying text on a handheld electronic device that comprises an input apparatus, an output apparatus, and a memory having stored therein a plurality of objects comprising a plurality of language objects, the input apparatus comprising a plurality of input members, at least some of the input members each having a number of linguistic elements assigned thereto, at least one input member having a plurality of linguistic elements assigned thereto, the method comprising:
- detecting a delimited ambiguous input comprising a number of input member actuations;
generating a plurality of results in response to the delimited ambiguous input; and
outputting an indication that each result of at least two of the results is substantially identical to a corresponding language object said outputting comprising;
identifying, for each result of the at least two of the results, a corresponding language object associated with a frequency object having a frequency value;
associating with each result of the at least two of the results the frequency value of the corresponding language object;
determining a frequency delta between the frequency value associated with a first one of the at least two of the results and the frequency value associated with a second one of the at least two of the results; and
outputting the indication when the frequency delta is less than a predetermined threshold.

Abstract
A method of displaying text on a handheld electronic device, the handheld electronic device including an input apparatus, an output apparatus, and a memory having a plurality of objects stored therein, the plurality of objects including a plurality of language objects and a plurality of frequency objects having a frequency value, the input apparatus including a plurality of input members, at least one of the input members having a plurality of linguistic elements assigned thereto. The method comprises detecting a delimited ambiguous input, generating a plurality of results in response to the delimited ambiguous input, and outputting an indication that each result of at least two of the results is substantially identical in its entirety to a corresponding language object.

13. A handheld electronic device comprising:
-
a processor unit comprising a processor, an input apparatus, an output apparatus, and a memory having a plurality of objects and a routine stored therein; the plurality of objects comprising a plurality of language objects; the input apparatus comprising a plurality of input members, at least one of the input members having a plurality of linguistic elements assigned thereto, the routine comprising instructions which, when executed on the processor, enable the handheld electronic device to perform operations comprising; detecting a delimited ambiguous input comprising a number of input member actuations; generating a plurality of results in response to the delimited ambiguous input; and outputting an indication that each result of at least two of the results is substantially identical to a corresponding language object said outputting comprising; identifying, for each result of the at least two of the results, a corresponding language object, the corresponding language object being associated with a frequency object having a frequency value; associating with each result of the at least two of the results the frequency value of the corresponding language object; determining a frequency delta between the frequency value associated with a first one of the at least two of the results and the frequency value associated with a second one of the at least two of the results; and outputting the indication when the frequency delta is less than a predetermined threshold. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 27, 28)
