1. A method of disambiguating an input into a handheld electronic device having an input apparatus, an output apparatus, and a memory having stored therein a plurality of objects comprising a plurality of language objects, the input apparatus including a plurality of input members, each of at least some of the input members having a plurality of linguistic elements assigned thereto, the method comprising: (1) detecting an ambiguous input; (2) generating a number of compound language solution representations by, for each compound language solution representation: identifying a language object corresponding with a first portion of the ambiguous input and having a length equal to the length of the first portion, for the remaining portion of said ambiguous input other than said first portion, identifying one or more other language objects, each of said one or more other language objects corresponding to all or a portion of said remaining portion, and including in the compound language solution representation the language object corresponding with the first portion of the ambiguous input and at least a portion of each of the one or more other language objects; (3) outputting said compound language solution representations; (4) grouping said output compound language solution representations into one or more groups based on the number of the one or more other language objects fully or partially included therein; and (5) arranging said groups in order of decreasing priority according to the number of the one or more other language objects fully or partially included in the compound language solution representations in each group.
