A system for inputting and processing handwritten, multi-character text may comprise a handwriting recognition subsystem, a word completion subsystem, and an audio feedback system. The handwriting recognition system may be configured to capture a series of handwritten characters formed by a user and to convert the handwritten characters into a set of candidate partial text strings. The word completion subsystem may be configured to identify if a candidate partial text string constitutes a word segment and if so, generate one or both of (i) at least one clarifying word and (ii) at least one clarifying phrase that includes the clarifying word. The word segment may be an arbitrary string and not correspond to a valid complete word in a language associated with the system. The audio feedback subsystem may be configured to produce an audio representation of the word segment(s), the clarifying word(s), and the clarifying phrase(s).
A multi-character text input system, said multi-character text input system comprising a handwriting-recognition subsystem, a word-completion subsystem, and an audio-feedback subsystem,
A computer-implemented method of receiving and responding to multi-character text input, said method comprising:
A non-transitory computer-readable medium with computer code instruction stored thereon, wherein the computer code instructions, when executed by a processor, cause an apparatus to convert handwritten characters written by a user into a set of candidate partial text strings, for each candidate partial text string of the set of candidate partial text strings, determine that the candidate partial text string constitutes a word segment that does not correspond to a valid word in a language associated with the handwriting recognition subsystem, generate, based on the word segment, a clarifying phrase that is a clarifying conjunctive phrase and includes a clarifying word and the word segment and, produce an audio representation of the clarifying phrase.
