Japanese Input Method and recommended dictionary

[hiroaki]

This typing method is great.
But I have 2 problem.

1.cannot change the words basic block
"basic block" leads to much very much for Japanese.
For example "OSHOKUJIKEN" has two meaning, "Oshokuji Ken(Meal coupon)" and "Oshoku Jiken(corruption case)".
In English alike "No, too expensive"or "No too expensive".
Smart Keyboard doesn't change the basic block.
I need to basic block exchange keys.Other Input Methods have arrow key, [<-]key and [->]key.

2.Recommended Dictionary
"Japanese for Smart Keyboard" dictionary is too weak and poor.
I need to improve the dictionary.
for example, use NAIST Japanese Dictionary
http://cl.aist-nara.ac.jp/index.php?%B8 ... 1%BC%A5%B9
for example, Smart Keyboard will be a FrontEnd of other Japanese Input Method,"Google IME,"Sosial IME","Anthy","canna"...etc..

I expect the Smart Keyboard.

I do agree that the Japanese dictionary that Smart Keyboard uses is not the best of quality. There are too few candidates for single kanji derived from a single kana, such as those kanji made from え for which at the very least 絵 should pop up (but instead there are no candidates at all).

Regarding the katakana issue that everyone is having, I would suggest adding a katakana candidate for every word you input, similar to the other Japanese IMEs available for Android. That way there would be no need for a specific katakana button or similar.

There's little question about how awesome Smart Keyboard is, and it is really the only keyboard that has word prediction for both English and Japanese. If the Japanese dictionary were improved then there would be no need to fall back to OPENWNN or Simeji when you can't find the kanji you're looking for.

Also, having the option to have T9/multi-tap for Japanese but still keep Latin-based keyboards as QWERTY would be awesome!

Either way, keep up the great work. Smart Keyboard is #1!
