Dictionary
iPod touch has spelling dictionaries for all supported languages. The appropriate
dictionary is activated automatically when you select a keyboard on iPod touch.
iPod touch uses the active dictionary to suggest corrections or complete the word
you’re typing.
You don’t need to interrupt your typing to accept the suggested word.
Suggested word
Accept or reject dictionary suggestions:
 To reject the suggested word, finish typing the word as you want it, then tap the
“x” to dismiss the suggestion before typing anything else. Each time you reject a
suggestion for the same word, iPod touch becomes more likely to accept your word.
 To use the suggested word, type a space, punctuation mark, or return character.
Edit text: Touch and hold to see a magnified view, then drag to position the insertion
point.
