Opera Mini Incorrectly Expands "mn" to "minute"
Since Opera Mini version 5.1 (at least), Opera expands "mn" to "minute" automatically when you enter a space or hit enter after it. I live in Minnesota (abbreviated "MN") and I really hate this Opera Mini feature, because it happens whenever I'm filling out a form or entering "mn" into a search field. It reminds me of Microsoft's AutoCorrect, but poorly implemented and seemingly without any recourse.Searching for "mn" on acronyma yields many words/phrases for which it is an abbreviation, topping the list... Minnesota! The word "minute" doesn't even make the list ("min" is the true abbreviation for "minute"). Not sure which other abbreviations Opera Mini has incorrect, but this one is a major pain point for me.
Along with the "mn" issue, I also found the following state abbreviations are auto-expanded:
ID (Idaho) changes to I'd
IL (Illinois) changes to I'll
MO (Missouri) changes to month
Is there any way I can turn off this "feature"?
Thanks,
Travis
It's probably your OS or a third party input method you've installed rather than Opera Mini that's doing this. I'm not seeing any such behavior with Opera Mini 6.5 for Android
