9. A method of disambiguating an input into a handheld electronic device, the handheld electronic device including an input apparatus, an output apparatus, and a memory storing a plurality of objects, the plurality of objects including a plurality of language objects and a plurality of frequency objects, each of at least a portion of the language objects of the plurality of language objects being associated with an associated frequency object of the plurality of frequency objects, the plurality of language objects including a plurality of word objects each corresponding to one of a plurality of stored words and a plurality of n-gram objects, substantially each n-gram object of the plurality of n-gram objects including at least a first linguistic element, the input apparatus including a plurality of input members, each of at least a portion of the input members of the plurality of input members having a plurality of linguistic elements assigned thereto, at least one of the input members of the plurality of input members being a selection input member that is adapted to be actuatable to input a selection input, the method comprising: detecting an ambiguous input including a number of input member actuations of a number of the input members, at least one of the input members of the number of input members having a plurality of linguistic elements assigned thereto; responsive to each said input member actuation, generating a number of prefix objects corresponding with the ambiguous input, each prefix object of the number of prefix objects including a number of the linguistic elements of the number of the input members of the ambiguous input; responsive to each said input member actuation, generating a result by, for each prefix object of at least a portion of the number of prefix objects, identifying a word object of the plurality of word objects, the identified word object corresponding with the prefix object, obtaining an associated frequency object of the plurality of frequency objects, the associated frequency object being associated with the identified word object and having a frequency value, and associating the frequency value of the associated frequency object with the prefix object; responsive to each said input member actuation, for at least a portion of the prefix objects of the result, generating an output set of the prefix objects sorted according to the frequency values associated therewith; responsive to each said input member actuation, displaying at a first location on the display a disambiguation of the input and at a second location on the display a plurality of outputs, at least one of the plurality of outputs comprising the disambiguation, at least a portion of the plurality of outputs each being a prefix object of the output set and being organized in descending order of frequency value and at least one of the plurality of outputs being an orphan prefix which consists of k linguistic elements, k being the quantity of actuations in the ambiguous input up, wherein the orphan prefix is different from the first k characters in each of the plurality of stored words; detecting a number of selection inputs from the selection input member; and responsive to each said selection input, replacing the output at the first location on the display with another output of the plurality of outputs.
13. The method of claim 9 , further comprising detecting as said number of selection inputs an initial rotation of a rotatable input member a predetermined rotational distance in a first rotational direction and a subsequent rotation of the rotatable input member the predetermined rotational distance in a second rotational direction.
