You can't access the iPhone's dictionary. It's just a database of words (standard & added ones) that the iPhone uses when it auto-fills words that it knows when you write in text boxes...
Thanks T.E....just don't understand how we can access everything else within the iOS except the dictionary??
Are you sure there isn't SOME way possible?
Thanks again dude!

"That database is stored in the "mobile" user directory, in /private/var/mobile/Library/Keyboard. The file is called dynamic-text.dat. It consists of a (mostly) plain text list of words that the iPhone has marked for special attention. "

I've seen this discussed before but with no resolution; can this text file be added to so the iPhone doesn't correct a load of words you don't want correcting? E.g. I could copy my MS Word custom dictionary entries (as plain text) into it?
No I don't think you are Bushbabywas...Maybe that well informed individual that answered above will come back here and bring us up to speed.
I can help you
Hey guys! here's where you can access your phone's word bank.
Settings>General>Keyboard
Should be easy peasy from there.
You're welcome

Yes, you can. Follow the instructions I just posted for Fuzion, and there's an option called Shortcuts. Its not what you think it is. You can add words to the bank there that you want your phone to recognize as real words, instead of trying to correct them into what it thinks the word should be. Hope this helps!
