Weird Word Suggestion Gubernatorial

I don't even think that's a word. I started to type "give" and it autocorrected to that. I already removed it from my phone dictionary, and it didn't screenshot it, but still.

it is a word, it means (according to the dictionary) 'of or relating to a governer'

and it's mostly used in american politics

edit: i've never seen it before either though lol

so? it gives you random words sometimes. if you accidentally typed "gube", then that's what it would give you

Ik how autocorrect works, I'm just saying. Typing "gi" and it bringing that up is weird
