							Keyboard input methods
An input method enables you to type words or characters that are not available using the characters on your keyboard 
layout. In some cases, input methods give you a phonetic approximation of a word based on the keyboard layout you are  using. Your device can then suggest a character or diacritic based on the sound you choose.
In other cases, input methods provide you with gestures and key combinations for languages. Some keyboard input 
methods are common to all supported languages, such as word prediction or selecting accented characters by pressing 
and holding keys.
Typing in other languages
