      Hello all,

      I've just started using Ubuntu Touch and I'm having some issues with the keyboard's auto-correct. It often auto-corrects words that I typed correctly into something I didn't mean - for example, it changes Kama Sutra to Kama Surat when using the UK English keyboard setting - is there a way that I can undo individual corrections like this as and when they happen? I remember in Android 6, this was accomplished by pressing backspace after the erroneous correction took place.

      Best regards,
      UltrasonicMadness

        Yes you can "teach" it.
        You type the word you want, autocorrect changes it but no worries, push space bar, then backspace and then spacebar again.
