What would you like? Need a way to add words like 3D, 123telugu to the learned words

Why it would help? This will help users to get predictions and auto complete when typing such words.

I'll look into it. There should probably also be words with -

looking into this properly now. the learned-words filter is deliberately narrow at the moment so it doesn't pick up junk (stray punctuation, random tokens), and I want to see what starts sneaking in once I widen it to numbers, - , _ and &. will add it right after 2.1.2 is out on the App Store.

turned out this overlapped with another request (portuguese hyphenated forms weren't sticking either, same root cause: the "-" was getting dropped before a word could be saved), so I just went ahead and did it now instead of waiting. it's in for build 407: words with - _ & and numbers now save as learned words, so well-being, user_name, AT&T, 3D, covid19 stick and start showing as predictions once you've typed them a few times. bare numbers (years, phone numbers) stay out on purpose. once 407 is up, give it a go and tell me if anything you'd expect to save still doesn't.
