1. A computer-implemented language editing system, comprising:

  • an editor component configured to receive and process a string of language objects of a written language and for visually designating the string as ambiguous if the string is not in a dictionary;

    an input component configured to enable insertion of a user-specified phrase-key separator into the string of the language objects to disambiguate language objects of the string into a user-defined phrase recognizable as a grammatical unit, as the language objects are being input, wherein the phrase-key separator is a user-specified character automatically recognized by the system as a specific word-breaking character for activating an editing mode for separating the string into a proper phrase, wherein the editing mode changes the user-defined phrase by applying visually distinctive emphasis to the user-defined phrase;

    a user interface configured to facilitate settings configuration for phrase input, including phrase input options that define a user-selected keyboard key to be assigned as the phrase-key separator; and

    a microprocessor that executes computer-executable instructions in a memory associated with the editor component, the input component, and the user interface.
