I've been searching how to delete the words I misspelled in my dictionary. Its auto correcting the right word to the typo! 
Can someone advise me how to remove the words from the Samsung dictionary as there are so many I need to delete!

Like i.said before there's loads if them and j don't knownwhat they are. That's why I need the dictionary to go through the list. Unless I'm watching the screen for every word I type amd check lists of alternatives for every word that wont work.

Oh yeah I totally get you. It's beyond frustrating. Having a personal dictionary would be so much easier. Samsung have just made it so hard. I'm finding mistakes all the time where the phone has saved a random spelling mistake, drives me crazy

There used to be a personal dictionary. This used to be an easy process. But looks like it's not gone.
I had to reset my keyboard before and lose all learned words. So my keyboard had to relearn everything.
It's a very unacceptable to remove such a useful featute

I noticed that whenever there is an update the learned "incorrect" spelling go away, but so do the learned words.....

I have S22, that didn't happen with S20....

THIS IS NOT A THING. At least not on the S21+ using the Samsung keyboard! Really wish people would stop giving incorrect or not specific enough directions!

WILL YOU ALL STOP MAKING ***** UP?!? THIS IS NOT A THING! I have the S21+ with the Samsung keyboard, and there is NO pop up menu, let alone a menu with a delete option, and NO trash can icon to drag it too, and even if it DID, long pressing and holding does NOT allow you to drag it ANYWHERE. STOP MAKING ***** UP! I have seriously been looking for an answer to this exact question for YEARS and all your for sure advice is MADE UP!

I'll tell you what DOESN'T work. Long pressing and holding the misspelled word in the suggestion bar does NOT open a pop up menu with a delete button. THIS IS FALSE. Nor does it allow you to drag it anywhere. Let alone to a trash can icon, since that isn't there either. So that suggestion? ALSO FALSE. So if anyone wants to actually help answer this, like with ACTUAL FACTS, I would LOVE to know the answer.

Not making anything up so calm down mate!!
On you Samsung keyboard when you type, it give you 3 word choices as it predicts what youre going to say and corrects spelling mistakes (when it feels like it coz its not accurate)
If you've used a word thats misspelled it can store it (somewhere you cant find for some stupid reason) it usually pops up as the middle suggestion (not always)
If you LONG PRESS this word it will come up with a box asking if you would like to remove this from the learned words.
I cant find a way to post a screenshot but if I find out ill tag you.

On mine that does work
Although not for two letter words so I have one annoying painful 2 letter word that I can't get rid of and I hate when it pops up
