    How do I turn off word suggestions while typing in ALL applications


    how do i turn off the word suggestions that appear as I type? It does this in EVERY application I am in so it must be something I need to turn off in the microsoft settings. The words stay on the screen too long, requires another key stroke or 2 from me to get rid of it and it is a nuisance. Does it in Word, email, internet browser, even typing this question it comes up with word suggestions.

    :)

    Suggestion on enhancement of typing Amharic words

    To those who developed Amharic typing/keyboarding system. I have one comment/suggestion on it.

    "Enter" or "Space" key is used frequently when Amharic words are typed. These keys help to select the right word from displayed options. To make Amharic typing fast and easy please enhance it to take the first choice when the user press any other key that
    is not listed as options. For example to type the word "ሚስጥር" here are the steps on the current Amharic typing system

    1. pressing "m" and then "i" and then space/enter keys (to type ሚ)

    2. pressing "s" and then space/enter keys (to type ስ)

    3. pressing "t" and then "." and then space/enter keys (to type ጥ)

    4. pressing "r" and then space/enter keys (to type ር)

    I suggest to have a possibility not to use space/enter keys to write the same word ("ሚስጥር"). That means when I press "m" and then "i", I have two available options "ሚ" and "ሜ". space/enter key is used to type "ሚ" and "e" is used to type "ሜ". If the user
    type any other keys (other than "e" or space/enter), it will not write anything on the screen because it is out of the available options. What I am suggesting here is that - when the user types any key which is not in the available options, let it take the
    first option.

    if you apply the above suggestion here will be the steps to type the word "ሚስጥር"

    1. pressing "m" and then "i" (to type ሚ)

    2. pressing "s" (to type ስ)

    3. pressing "t" and then "." (to type ጥ)

    4. pressing "r" (to type ር)

    This will make typing Amharic words very easy and fast.
