The predictive text on my ancient Nokia (the one on the left above) which was produced shortly after cuneiform became obsolete. I once discovered only after sending that when I type 'meal' its first choice is 'neck'. If you don't check before sending that can be embarrassing.This Christmas I had to send a number of texts which informed, invited, described or intimated a meal.
I am taking the staff out for a well earned meal.
We had a long lesiurely meal at Cardosi's.
Last night was the annual fellowship meal.
For once we had a meal together without arguing.
Are you free to come over for a pot luck meal with the rest of the house group.
We had a hot meal, which was just what we needed.
Need I go on. Just substitute neck for meal in any of the above.
Always check the predictive spelling then. Does your phone do stuff like that?
Yes. I spent Monday 'sexing up the curtains' for my daughter!
And my phone always offers and 'nun' for Mum' I get Surprisingly 'car' is 'bbq' and sadly 'joy' becomes 'low'
"I will soon be home" is rendered as "I will soon be good"
And "I should be resting" comes out as "I should be serving"
ALWAYS proofread before sending!! blessings
