Hello everyone, Donna sort of brings up a point that would interest me. How do you actually enter a word within Fleksy that isn't in its dictionary? Is there a way to force the App to let you enter a word in the "usual way?" Although I write lots of stuff on my iPhone in English, I sometimes need to enter names of restaurants, etc., whose names are German.
Thanks and happy fleksing! Mike On 19,Aug,2012, at 11:03 PM, Donna Goodin <[email protected]> wrote: > You know, it's hard to completely separate them.
