Thanks for your report. I agree, it's the same problem in French. When
the user types a non accented letter, the keyboard should propose
accented variants of the word.

Title:
  predictive text works weird with accented words

Status in Canonical System Image:
  Confirmed
Status in ubuntu-keyboard package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I've seen this both in italian and spanish where there are accented
  words: if for example in spanish I write "mama", it doesn't suggest
  anything else. If, instead, I type "mam" (or if I go back and delete
  the last "a"), it does suggest "mamá" (which is the word I want but am
  too lazy to tap myself).

  It's even more annoying in italian: writing "e" doesn't suggest "è"
  (which is the one I usually want) but in this case I cannot delete
  anything to get the suggestion offered and I need to long tap the e
  key everytime I want to type "è".

  Could we  make accented words "similar" to those same words without
  any accentuation so they get suggested?
