When I'm typing in messages on my macbook autocorrect often changes something I typed correctly. When I backspace to the word I get a hint with a curved arrow and what I actually typed. But I can never figure out what the key command is to tell it to revert to the originally typed word. Any ideas?
MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2017), iOS 11.4.1

Try this After you've got the overlay with the previous, uncorrected spelling, you can press the down arrow key, then Return/Enter. This accepts the selected, uncorrected spelling.
Alternative:
Having auto correct, sometimes to write a word spelled incorrectly
Pressing 'Space Bar' will correct your word.
If you press 'UP' arrow, it will cancel auto-correct.
If you press 'Down' it will let you cycle the choices, then hit 'Space Bar' when you've selected the word you want.
You can also try using the Escape Key

Does the command Z work in this instance?

You are the only one as the OP who has the ability to mark as helpful or solved.

What is the key command for the curved arrow in messages after an autocorrect?
