A computing device is described that receives first input, at an initial time, of a first textual character and a second input, at a subsequent time, of a second textual character. The computing device determines, based on the first and second textual characters, a first character sequence that does not include a space character between the first and second textual characters and a second character sequence that includes the space character between the first and second textual characters. The computing device determines a first score associated with the first character sequence and a second score associated with the second character sequence. The computing device adjusts, based on a duration of time between the initial and subsequent times, the second score to determine a third score, and responsive to determining that the third score exceeds the first score, the computing device outputs the second character sequence.
