1. A method of enabling input into a handheld electronic device having a touch screen display, a processor, and having available therein a plurality of input method languages and a text disambiguation function that is structured to employ an operative one of the input method languages, the method comprising: detecting, as a first input from the touch screen display, selection of at least one linguistic element; outputting a first plurality of selectable language objects that correspond with the first input and associated with an operative input method language; outputting, at a location adjacent the first plurality of selectable language objects, a selectable indicator representative of the operative input method language; detecting as a second input, from the touch screen display concurrently displaying the first plurality of selectable language objects, selection of the selectable indicator; outputting a set of input method languages selectable as alternate operative input method languages based on the detection of the second input detecting an additional input as being a selection of an alternate input method language from the set of input method languages, wherein the additional input is from the touch screen display, which concurrently displays the first plurality of selectable language objects; and replacing the first plurality of selectable language objects with a second plurality of selectable language objects associated with the alternate input method language.

The method of claim 1 , further comprising detecting an additional input as being a selection input of an alternative input method language from the set of input method languages and, responsive thereto, employing the alternate input method language as the operative input method language.
