Has anyone found away to eliminate the appalling grammar and autocorrect suggestions, that simply should not be in the phone dictionary and no one who is over 5 years old uses.
words such as “gonna” instead of going?
Come on Apple I am sure the majority of your customers are not illiterate 12 year olds!

While you can't directly remove words like "gonna" from the iPhone's autocorrect dictionary, there are a few workarounds to improve your typing experience:
1. Text Replacement: Go to Settings ➡️ General ➡️ Keyboard ➡️ Text Replacement. Add a new shortcut where typing "gonna" automatically replaces it with "going." This way, you can override autocorrect's suggestions.
2. Reset Keyboard Dictionary: If autocorrect has learned too many unwanted words, you can reset it. Go to Settings ➡️ General ➡️ Transfer or Reset iPhone ➡️ Reset ➡️ Reset Keyboard Dictionary. Keep in mind this will erase all custom words it has learned.
3. Turn Off Auto-Correction: If autocorrect is more trouble than it's worth, you can disable it entirely. Go to Settings ➡️ General ➡️ Keyboard and SET Auto-Correction to OFF.
4. Use Predictive Text Wisely: If you see "gonna" pop up in the predictive text bar, tap and hold it, then select Remove to teach your iPhone not to suggest it.

You might have to rethink a few things. The word gonna is in the Oxford English Dictionary (OED) and doubt many 12 year old illiterates are reviewing entries there.
