My auto correct won't correct "thr" to "the" can't figure out how to fix

[Wesli]

I have tried everything to get my phone to autocorrect "thr" to "the".

Can't figure it out.

It was comical when I searched for a solution how many "thr" typos I found in thr comunity. Anyone figured this out?

Maybe you should just type it correctly to begin with? Just askin'...

Hello @Wesli!
I am assuming that you use Samsung Keyboard, please let me know if that is not the case.

In Samsung Keyboard, it learns your patterns and how you type. One of the downsides of that is sometimes it adds words that are not correct.

The simple way to get rid of it is to hold on the word for 2 seconds, and then when it prompts you to remove the word, confirm it.

I have attached a screenshot to help you.

Thanks foe the reply. I have tried this but it hasn't worked. If I type thr, then it appears on thr far left of thr predictive text bar.
If I hold down on it, nothing happens. If I hold down on thr middle word or the right word, I can delete those.
If I type th and look down at the bar, thr is not listed in the predictive text so I can't delete it.
Frustrating

Hmmm, that it quite odd. I will let you know if I think of a solution.
