Abstract: The present invention discloses a system and a method for spell checking of an input text inserted by a user through a multiple-typing reduced numeric keypad device. The correction may be based on comparison to at least one given reference database vocabulary containing words and associated representation sequences, where the representation sequences may be: (i) Numeric Representations (NR) and Key Presses (KP) sequences. The NR is a sequence representing the digits numbers required to achieve a given word where the KP represents the sequence of the number of key presses required to reach each character in a key. For example sequences of the word “big” using a standard mobile phone reduced keypad: NR=244 and KP=231.
