Abstract

The present disclosure generally relates to language input correction. In one example process, a sequence of contact inputs can be detected via a keyboard interface on a touch-sensitive display. A contact input of the sequence of contact inputs can include a contact motion from a first position to a second position of the keyboard interface. A plurality of candidate words corresponding to the sequence of contact inputs can be determined. The plurality of candidate words can be ranked based on a probability that the contact input is an intended input to select a first key of the keyboard interface, and a probability that the contact input is an intended input to select a second key of the keyboard interface. A portion of the plurality of candidate words can be displayed for user selection.
