PREDICTING TEXTUAL CANDIDATES

Embodiments are provided to predict and suggest one or more candidates. Words, acronyms, compound words, phrases, and other textual and symbolic representations can be predicted and suggested to a user as part of an input process or other user operation. In an embodiment, a number of textual candidates can be predicted based in part on user input and data stored in a store component. The number of predicted textual candidates can be suggested to a user as a number of suggested textual candidates. Embodiments enable a user to select an appropriate textual candidate from the number of suggested textual candidates, while reducing a number of associated user operations.
