unpopular autocorrect problems

I use Swiftkey on my phone because it's the only keyboard that lets you enable three different languages' spelling/prediction dictionaries simultaneously (and I definitely need the ability to use Swedish, Finnish, and English daily). I would have avoided adding Welsh since I know so little of it that the predictions will just confuse the issue, but I couldn't figure out how to add the ŵ and ŷ options to the keyboard without adding Welsh to the program - the Swedish keyboard I use only includes circumflexes over aeiou in Swiftkey. So.

Swiftkey, unlike the common autocorrect complaint, has definitely learned the swearwords that I use, and now that I'm learning Welsh farm animals, every time I need to translate 'duck' it offers 'fuck' instead.
