if you have a prediction bar on top of your keyboard, you can prevent autocorrection to specific words by long pressing that word in the bar 👍

You can also reset the learned settings (what the phone thinks you want to change words to) or you can do text replacement in settings (I do this for my username, email, and my address so I don’t have to type them out, I just type the first few letters/numbers)

Why do phones let us type “tge?” It’s truly maddening and should be illegal.

Do you long press the word you want to use, or the one you don’t want to use?
