There needs to be a way to reset this kind of learned behavior.

I must have accidentally corrected "and" into "abs" once because now my iPhone always corrects "and" into "abs" when I use swipe gestures.

"Bob abs Katie are here".

Since I never notice it until I send the message, it's becoming so cocksure about the correction that there's no going back.

There is someone else I know that always texts me with "abs" instead of "and"

I think there was a dictionary you can reset.

EDIT: "Settings > General > Reset; Tap Reset Keyboard Dictionary"

Minor correction: Settings > General > Transfer or Reset iPhone > Reset, then tap Reset Keyboard Dictionary

on mine, at least. Apple does enjoy moving these things around from time to time.

Not going down that part of the settings tree, that looks really dangerous.

I wish you could selectively edit it. I use “The” (obviously), Te (Māori) and “TE” (echo time, I use MR scanners a lot).

Everything is a mess when I type.
