Samsung Note autocorrect typing

Depending on your settings, when you are typing a word, the phone replaces the word while you type. How do you ignore that and type what you really want? The autocorrect typing on Samsung Note is not documented well, afaik.

It is easy. Just keep typing, the word you are really typing will be shown below as the first option even though the phone is showing what it thinks you really want. Click the word you definitely did want in the list of suggested words. You have to have "Touch to correct words" setting turned on.

I'm sure there is a better way to explain this.

Voice Input is very powerful. The phone understands my wife. But, when I try it the result is always: "Huh? W r u saying?" Just kidding.
