About the custom word list

When you type, the BlackBerry® device displays possible words and letter combinations in a list below the text. If you type a word or letter combination that the device does not recognize, the word or letter combination is added to the custom word list. The next time that you type the word or letter combination, you can select it from the list that appears.

You can also add entries manually to the custom word list.

If you do not use the words on the custom word list, they are deleted after a period of time.
