Nuance Brings Next Generation of Swype to India With Support for Hinglish
NEW DELHI, July 26, 2012/PRNewswire/ --
Swype's New Living, Learning Keyboard Gets Smarter Every Time you use it
Nuance Communications Inc. today announced that the next generation of Swype, a
learning, living touch input keyboard, now supports the Hinglish language - a mixture of
Hindi and English. Swype is a revolutionary step forward in the way people communicate and
input text on their mobile devices, and this latest version makes it easier for users to
quickly Swype or type Hinglish words like chai, paani, desi, garam, masti, jungli, etc.
Swype's mixed-language Hinglish database consists of tens of thousands of Hindi words
transliterated into Latin script, as well as a vast English wordlist.
The new version of Swype also contains unique adaptive capabilities to understand
users'preferences over time - becoming smarter and more personalized every time they use
it.
Staying connected has never been more exciting as Swype provides consumers with more
choice in how they input text, and now interprets a user's personal language style -
providing an amazingly fast, flexible, and accurate experience. New features include:
- Next Word Prediction: Swype's next word prediction is incredibly
intelligent as Nuance has integrated capabilities from its renowned XT9 portfolio.
Swype gets smarter based on historical usage, so prediction becomes more accurate with
each use. For even smarter predictions, the user can choose to have Swype learn from
emails, texts and tweets.
- Multi-Modal Keyboard: Swype now delivers multiple input modes in one keyboard.
People can Swype from letter to letter; or type rapidly with predictive text input.
Further, users can switch back and forth between modalities on the fly - providing the
ultimate in keyboard personalization.
"People use their keyboards every day in every way - so input needs to be fast and
simple and with the growing popularity of Hinglish as the medium of communication in
India, we are proud to introduce Swype with Hinglish support," said Sunny Rao, Managing
Director, India & South-East Asia, Nuance Communications. "Swype's living, learning
keyboard ushers in a new era of input, where the keyboard adapts to the users' unique way
of communicating," he added.
