    But on modern smartphones, you probably manually enter in the phone number so rarely that they never even learned the word.
    The on screen dialpad is displayed the same way as the on screen keyboard so they used the same word.

      I appreciate your comment it makes a lot of sense how dialing could have decreased in usage. Also love your username!
