How to delete words from keyboard iPhone?

You can literally make your iPhone forget the words that you do not use. The words you remove will not appear in the predictive texts.

Predictive text is one of the best features to have on an iPhone because it predicts words that you are typing without you completely typing it. For instance, if you type “Commendable” too much during your conversations, your predictive texts will suggest you the word when you type the first two letters of the word.

However, it is only helpful when it predicts the right words but when it works incorrectly, that becomes annoying and irritating while typing on the keyboard. There are so many people finding a fix for this issue because its something beyond our control.
