Text suggestion boxes in Safari and elsewhere

When I'm typing in a text-box (like this one in Safari), little boxes keep jumping out with suggestions (a little rectangle box with the word in it, plus a curved section with an 'x' on the right).


I'd like to turn these off completely, but I can't see how to do it. I notice it mainly in Safari, though it happens in other programs as well.


Thanks.

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 10.15

Hello SyncOverSea,


Thanks for reaching out through the Apple Support Communities about the auto-correction on your Mac.


This article covers how to adjust the automatically spelling and grammar features: Check spelling and grammar on Mac


Hopefully that helps address your situation.


Take care.
