1. A method for an electronic device, comprising:
- receiving, in a text input region of a user interface displayed by the electronic device, a first handwritten input comprising at least one handwritten character;
obtaining a plurality of candidate words, the candidate words being associated with the at least one handwritten character;
generating a first instruction to display information identifying one or more of the candidate words in a text display region of the user interface displayed by the electronic device, the text display region being separated from the text input region;
receiving, in the text input region, a second handwritten input comprising a handwritten geometric shape indicative of a selection of one of the displayed candidate words; and
in response to receiving the second handwritten input comprising a handwritten geometric shape in the text input region, generating a second instruction to display the selected candidate word in the text display region of the user interface displayed by the electronic device.

Abstract
A computer-implemented method for use in an electronic device includes receiving a first handwritten input comprising at least one handwritten character, and obtaining a plurality of candidate words that correspond to at the least one handwritten character. A first electronic instruction is generated to display information identifying one or more of the candidate words on a display of the electronic device. A second handwritten input indicative of a selection of one or the displayed candidate words is received, and a second electronic instruction is generated to display the selected candidate word on the display of the electronic device.
