I don't write spanish at all, but the language option in Swype keyboard keeps switching me to learn :)
Is there a way to remove it completely?

I'm running Swype Beta on cm7 and don't remember if default Swype that comes preinstalled on the x2 has the same settings... Whatever...try going to Swype setting, language, uncheck espsanol and that should do it.

I've been trying to figure this out as well...I've yet to find an option to disable it...I'm considering editing the app to hey rid of it. Assuming I can get into the app...

Don't think I was clear... To get to settings you need to long press the Swype key (should be bottom row far left with the Swype graphic on it) that will launch the options menu (for preinstalled Swype) from witch you would select the settings menu...or if you have Swype Beta installed it will take you directly to settings...

I am using Swype Beta and once in setting I go to language and uncheck espanol thus removing Spanish as an option so no more accidental switching to Spanish in the middle of Swyping.

Apparently this change is made through the phone settings menu if you are using the stock Swype keyboard on a stock or "blur" based rom. In that case go to the thread linked below an follow instructions in the last post.

Hope this helps

I have tried both methods, unfortunately, neither of them works.

The problem with the selection is it is a radiobutton instead of a checkbox for the language option for swype. Therefore, even if you choose English, once you nice figure touch the En/Es button, you are back on learning spanish. No offense, but I have no interesting in learning a new language.

For the stock keyboard, it is fine to unselect the unwanted languages.

This is the biggest and best "feature" of swype, even better than itune. I must say the project manager and developers spent many hours on this bug.

Are you using Swype Beta or standard?

Is there a way to enable Spanish on stock cm7 keyboard?

Cyanogenmod
Near as I can figure... Sliding your finger across the spacebar should change the language or access that function. Settings for the stock cm7 keyboard are in phone settings under Language & Keyboard.
