i use my phone's calendar a lot to input reminders, appointments and things to buy. i already typed in 'raisins' and 'mayo' earlier, then remembered gatas (milk) when i checked something in the fridge. as i was typing 'gatas' (milk) before 'raisins', it gave me the following suggestions: gatas is inspired. gatas is installed. gatas is insane. what?? the suggestions are so crazy it's hilarious! has it happened to you?

All the time! I hate autocorrect. It never has anything to do with what I'm saying.

I have autocorrect turned off on my computer. I prefer to catch my own mistakes. I think autocorrect can get you into a lot of trouble sometimes.

sometimes the suggested words stick out and make the message confusing, maybe because most of us use both english and filipino

i think it's because i input both english and filipino text so they get mixed up. my text messages are also a mix of filipino and english.

it's helpful when it's a reminder or a text message that i always use, so i just tap on the text that comes up

I take my notes manually, at most I write hilarious things if I am writing too fast.

@hereandthere I can (my husband has your problem), but as I mix several languages sometimes I write funny things.
