>i just turned auto correct off completely a few versions ago...
I don;t use autocorrect at all. Never have. But I do use 'swipe-to-type' [or whatever it's called] on Android and run into the same annoyances, as it will also chooses the wrong word, for a swiped pattern, every time --no matter how often I correct it.
I'm sure there's a sub-clause in Murphy's Law which states that "No matter how many times you proof-read, any discussion on the subject of grammar or spelling will include typos"
