Does the Apple #iOS spellchecker/dictionary seriously not have the word: ‘dysphoria’ in it?

It does NOT want to help spell or suggest anything for it.
Even when I tap the suggestion which normally starts to learn it - still zilch.

@colinstu
It’s horrendous. It actually autocorrects things that are right to make them wrong—like if I want to write about whole foods (not the store, the foods), I have to accept “Whole Foods” and manually go back and change the W and F. Also in that previous sentence, it auto-capped the “and” after “Whole Foods.” It’s so nice, in comparison, when I work on my plain-HTML website and it never tries to do anything “helpful”! These things need to use actual dictionaries and grammar!

@superball oh yeah I have a whole laundry list of complaints and it feels like it gets worse every major version.

This sure feels like an oddity though.

It’ll love to learn typos I accidentally tap, but almost always refuses to learn real words. I don’t get it.
