Eatoni strives to always provide accurate, optimal databases for each language we treat. Our databases are constantly being updated and improved through data collection, user testing, and sophisticated mathematical analysis. Our goal is to enable quick, effortless typing of any likely word or letter sequence in any of the languages we support.
We are highly sensitive to localization issues such as language-specific keypad layouts and language-specific characters, as well as backward compatibility with manufacturer's key-assignment heritage. A major design constraint for our databases is memory usage. While our suggested database size is 10K for LetterWise and 150K for WordWise, we are able to optimally scale the databases to fit within a memory budget provided by a manufacturer.
In all, Eatoni products support about 300 languages. A large sample of those are listed below. The languages have been grouped in "regions", with our custom grouping being part geographical, part linguistic and part market-oriented.
Some languages are available in more than one script. The available script names are given in parenthesis. Some languages are variants or dialects, these are indicated by a hyphen, e.g. English-American for American English.
