Recognizing handwritten words at an electronic device. A plurality of strokes is received at a common input region of an electronic device. The plurality of strokes in combination defines a word comprising a plurality of symbols, a relative geometry of a first subset of the plurality of strokes defines a first symbol and a relative geometry of a second subset of the plurality of strokes defines a second symbol such that the relative geometry of the first subset of the plurality of strokes is not related to the relative geometry of the second subset of the plurality of strokes, and at least one stroke of the first subset of the plurality of strokes is spatially superimposed over at least one stroke of the second subset of the plurality of strokes. The word is determined using a processor of the electronic device based on the plurality of strokes without requiring recognition of the plurality of symbols, wherein a word is determined based at least in part on an entry sequence of subsets of the plurality of strokes. |
