Abstract
Embodiments are provided to predict and suggest one or more candidates. Words, acronyms, compound words, phrases, and other textual and symbolic representations can be predicted and suggested to a user as part of an input process or other user operation. In an embodiment, a number of textual candidates can be predicted based in part on user input and data stored in a store component. The number of predicted textual candidates can be suggested to a user as a number of suggested textual candidates. Embodiments enable a user to select an appropriate textual candidate from the number of suggested textual candidates, while reducing a number of associated user operations.
