continuous sliding on smartphone keyboard from letter to letter in order to write. Replaces typing and is faster.
begin at s (for the word swype) and slide to w, then y, then p and then e. The completed word appears on the smartphone screen. This is a writing movement that is very forgving. Spelled with a y rather than an i in order to distinguish it from swipe (a form of stealing).
