First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method, comprising:
- at a device with a touch-sensitive display, one or more processors, and memory;
receiving a handwritten input for a logographic character with the touch-sensitive display;
identifying and presenting one or more first candidate logographic characters for the handwritten input using a first dictionary; and
identifying and presenting one or more second candidate logographic characters based on a respective first candidate logographic character from among the one or more first candidate logographic characters, wherein the one or more second candidate logographic characters are identified using a mapping in a second dictionary that maps the respective first candidate logographic character to the one or more second candidate logographic characters based on related semantics or meaning of the respective first candidate logographic character.

Abstract
Methods, systems, devices, and apparatus, including computer program products, for identifying candidates for text entry. One or more inputs entering one or more characters are received. One or more first candidate characters are identified and presented for the inputs using a first dictionary. One or more second candidate characters related to a respective first candidate character are identified and presented.

5. A device, comprising:
-
a touch-sensitive display; one or more processors; memory; and one or more programs, wherein the one or more programs are stored in the memory and configured to be executed by the one or more processors, the one or more programs including instructions for; receiving a handwritten input for a logographic character with the touch-sensitive display; identifying and presenting one or more first candidate logographic characters for the handwritten input using a first dictionary; and identifying and presenting one or more second candidate logographic characters based on a respective first candidate logographic character from among the one or more first candidate logographic characters, wherein the one or more second candidate logographic characters are identified using a mapping in a second dictionary that maps the respective first candidate logographic character to the one or more second candidate logographic characters based on related semantics or meaning of the respective first candidate logographic character. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7, 8)

9. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing one or more programs, the one or more programs comprising instructions, which when executed by a device with a touch-sensitive display, cause the device to:
-
receive a handwritten input for a logographic character with the touch-sensitive display; identify and present one or more first candidate logographic characters for the handwritten input using a first dictionary; and identify and present one or more second candidate logographic characters based on a respective first candidate logographic character from among the one or more first candidate logographic characters, wherein the one or more second candidate logographic characters are identified using a mapping in a second dictionary that maps the respective first candidate logographic character to the one or more second candidate logographic characters based on related semantics or meaning of the respective first candidate logographic character. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12)
