Hello,
I have a Samsung Galaxy S8 with Android 9.
During use, incorrect words inevitably get added to the dictionary. This is very annoying because they are always suggested during auto-complete, which forces me to correct constantly.
For example, "...je te..." always writes "...je Trè..." So I have to systematically go back and correct Trè to te...
I would like to access the dictionary to remove these unwanted words.
I found a lot of information on the Internet, but none matches what I have on my phone. Most often, they talk about going to the gear icon under the typing area… they talk about dictionary… language and input… in short, I am supposed to eventually reach the list of words and be able to delete those that cause me problems…
However, I never manage to get to the list of words….
Can you please help me?
Thank you.

Good evening,
You have two options:
Either, during typing, you see the suggested words including the one that is problematic, you place your finger on the word in question and hold down until a window appears offering you the option to delete the word. Repeat this for each concerned word.
Or you can reset everything by going to Settings > Global Management > Language and input > On-screen keyboard > Samsung keyboard > Restore default settings > Clear personal data. This action will delete all custom words.
Best regards.
