doesn't happen with me. Spanish installed and used solo, and also installed English + spanish at the same time, doesn't happen. Look: Si tuviera un coche, un teléfono, un sillón y un café, mi vida sería perfecta.

Could you check if UN is

  • a name in your phone book OR
  • Defined as test replacement in EFKEY (tools>shortcuts) or on your iphone OR
  • Defined as a Learned word (type>dictionary>learned words)

If UN appears in the suggestion bar, could you long press it and then press remove to see if UN gets removed? @jotaemea

@jotaemea the keyboard had an English list of abbreviations ("UN", "EU", "USA") and applied it to swiped words in every language, so the Spanish article turned into the acronym. This will be in 2.2.1, the next App Store update: "un" stays "un", and "Un" at the start of a sentence.

Thanks! Let's await version 2.2.1 in the appstore. I'm testing on testflight and it seems to be resolved. Just bare with us!

@jotaemea Remove blocked the word "un" itself, while "UN" came from a separate abbreviation rule the block never reached, and after you typed "un" a few times the block lifted again. In 2.2.1, the next App Store update, removing "UN" stops the keyboard from writing it that way, "un" stays as you type it, and "UN" only comes back if you type it in capitals yourself.
