Are you certain that only the English (UK) variant was downloaded and installed? When using the English (UK) layout, the app should be loading the English (UK) dictionary exclusively. I am asking because I am unable to reproduce this issue when using the English (UK) dictionary variant on my end.

I have the same behavior but for the German words "ich" (translated I) and "mich" (and translated me). They are also never suggested and always autocorrected. I have added them to my personal dictionary and it didnt change anything. I am pretty sure they are in the German experimental dictionary, so they should be suggested (or at least not auto corrected). Auto correction is set to "aggressive" (but not super aggressive). I have enabled German and English US languages at the same time.

Edit: After some further investigation, I found the issue. Those words were in my blocklist.

I assume they've landed there due to a bug I've found.

1. Long-press any suggestion in the strip.
2. Within 3 seconds, keep typing and tap a suggestion in that same slot.
3. Whatever word was in that slot is now permanently blocked.
   I think that's due to the listener in SuggestionStripView.kt:696 never being cancelled.

I'd also propose that adding words to your personal dict should overrule the blocklist.
