4. A computing device comprising: at least one processor; a display device operatively coupled to the computing device; a presence-sensitive input device operatively coupled to the computing device; and at least one module operable by the at least one processor to: output, for display at the display device, a graphical keyboard comprising a plurality of keys; receive an indication of a gesture entered by an input unit detected at a plurality of locations of the presence-sensitive input device to select fewer than all of a group of the plurality of keys that corresponds to a candidate word; responsive to determining, based on the at least one input unit being detected at a particular location from the plurality of locations, that the gesture has not yet terminated: determine, based on the gesture, that the candidate word is a most likely candidate word of a plurality of candidate words associated with respective keys of the plurality of keys; responsive to determining that a speed of the gesture is below a threshold, output, for display at a first location of the display device that is associated with the particular location from the plurality of locations of the presence-sensitive input device, the candidate word; and responsive to determining, based on the at least one input unit no longer being detected at the presence-sensitive input device, that the gesture has terminated prior to selecting all of the group of the plurality of keys that corresponds to the candidate word, output, for display at a second location of the display device that corresponds to a text entry area, the candidate word.
