Find and remove words from your personal dictionary

Steps

1. Look at the list. A count above it says how many words you have, for example 14 words.

   Each word is a small pill with an x. When there are more than twelve words a Filter words box appears above the list.

2. Type part of a word in Filter words, for example ra.

   Only matching words stay in the list. Clear the box to see all of them again.

   The word leaves the list and a message says Removed “Rayapuram” from your dictionary. Click Undo in the message to put it back, or Dismiss to close it.
