Abstract
An improved spell check function and handheld electronic device provide a spell checking feature that includes a spell check algorithm that changes a suffix of a text entry by replacing each of one or more terminal characters thereof with a wild card element which can be any character or an absence of a character. A memory on the handheld electronic device has a plurality of language objects which are searched to identify language objects which correspond with the modified text entry with the terminal wild card element(s).
