[app help] Swype -- help with contractions

include the apostrophe when you're swyping the word, it should work.

 

Type the word: there's then hit the space bar, go back and high light it and include the space after the 's, then tap the Swype key.

 

Errr, how?
I don't think this can be done on swype. At least not with any proper efficiency.

 

if you swype t - h - e - r - e - . - s it will enter "there's" because it knows the apostrophe is on the "." key.

 

Ah very good! Didn't know that! Still kind of a PITA though. IMO we use the conjunction way more frequently in daily speak. Should just be default. But, that is a nice tip. Thanks!

 

Yeah it would be great if swype learned the words you use most and populated them instead of others with similar patterns. I don't know how many times I delete ifs and manually type is.

 

I live in Sisters, Oregon and swype almost always thinks I want to type Sister's. Odd. I don't swype anywhere near the period key.

I think the vast majority of people here won't get that reference
