keyboard-word predictions predicting foul language (in dutch)

I'm usually typing in Dutch. The word-suggestion, when typing or for 'next word' has some foul language that keeps popping up, which is kinda disturbing me. Is there any way to get this fixed, or manually exclude certain words from word predictions/dictionary?

I'm fairly certain i didn't add these words myself in the custom wordbook, maybe by accident? Is there any way to check?

You can reset the "added" words.
Go to settings > keyboard > advanced > reset suggestions.

Laat svp weten of dit heeft geholpen.

Yeah, but that would make me loose all my real suggestions / names / words, etc... no way to 'check' the suggestions-list? or delete individual made suggestions?

If there's not, i'll try it and let you know the result.

It still remembers the names in the contacts.

Unfortunately, theres no way to remove or edit individual words from the custom dictionary. All you can do is remove them all.

Resetting the suggestionlist has worked for the few examples i tested... still cannot imagine i added this word myself to the list. Anyway, issue solved for now. An option to see/edit/backup/import/share the list would be very nice! Also separate lists per language.
