Gboard clear out only ONE dictionary

Hiya, I have my personal dictionary for English that I've had for....idk how long, pretty much since Gboard became a thing lol. I've got ~1600 words in there, but at some point recently-ish, the entries were all duplicated 🫠 so I actually have closer to ~800…

Hiya, I have my personal dictionary for English that I've had for....idk how long, pretty much since Gboard became a thing lol. I've got ~1600 words in there, but at some point recently-ish, the entries were all duplicated 🫠 so I actually have closer to ~800 words. I already exported the dictionary, cleared out all the duplicate lines instantly in Notepad++, but does anyone know how to clear out *just* the existing English dictionary in Gboard so I can re-import the shortened list? I don't want to clear out all the keyboard data, ESPECIALLY my clipboard, and I don't want to clear the data from the other dictionaries either (All Languages and Spanish). Google has only shown me the all-or-nothing or individual item removal solutions, nothing about clearing out one dictionary. It's not a huge deal, but when I accidentally add something to the dictionary and need to remove it, it takes f o r e v e r to scroll through and find it if it's towards the end of the alphabet, or god forbid lower case and the end of the alphabet lol Thanks!!

Unfortunately, there does not seem to be a way to clear out one dictionary. However, google help does say that if you import an external dictionary for a language, the keyboard automatically deals with duplicates. Maybe you can try importing what you have just to trigger this duplicate-cleaning part of the code and see if that creates a clean dictionary for you?
