HTC Keyboard (GB, but behaves the same in Froyo)

[FrankXS]

When typing using the HTC standard keyboard, when it does word suggestions, is there a way of choosing one of the words (that is not really a word) without adding it to the "personal dictionary".

Example: Suppose I am typing discussing a boarhog (supposed to be two words). After awhile I get tired of typing boarhog so many times (which is wrong anyway) so in my message I just type BH (which is also wrong, but I want to use it!). If I select it to go into my text, it saves it to my personal dictionary as a word. I don't want that. After all, it's not a word. I just wanted to use it that one time, only. I may never use it again as long as I live!

I know I can go into my personal dictionary and clean it out now and then. And that's what I do. I just wish I could type a non-word and not have it saved to my personal dictionary.

I just started using Swype and it let's you do that. Still getting used to it but I kind of like it.

If I was typing "boarhog" or any other word just once I usually will start by hitting the b button then clicking the b up top. It'll let you spell the rest of the word however you want without correcting it.

Edit: and it won't add it to your list of added words.

Yes! Thank you! This works. Appreciate it.
