For real. If someone could SCTUALLY (oh look another issue. It fails to work out the word if the first letter is wrong far too often) *ACTUALLY answer this question I'd be halfway happy
Phones learn from what you’re typing. The more you type (typo) something, the more they will recommend it to you. Vicious cycle if it auto corrupts it for you, and you miss it/ignore it thinking the other party will understand you fine. Eventually it learns the ironic typos as actual words and then you’re stuck with them when you type. I kind of wish there’s a way to review / manage the autocomplete dictionaries, but I haven’t tried hard enough to find out yet.
I don't think the above poster has ever typed ConocoPhillips (hey it's on my autocorrect too)

On my phone if I hold down on the suggested word in the keyboard area, I can delete it from "learned words." This is only really helpful if it's a typo that isn't also a real word.
My phone still doesn't know what fuck means or suggests it to me when I want to write it even though I use it fairly often. I also daily greet my coworkers over threema and it still hasn't learned what I want to write when my sausage fingers and the too smal keyboard are at a disagreement what should be written.
