The auto-complete features can be nice, but somewhere along the line my iPhone has learned some questionable language. How can I get the iPhone to "forget" certain words from its auto-complete settings / dictionary?

It sounds like it used to be possible to manually edit the user dictionary, but unfortunately it isn't anymore.
Just a guess, but perhaps you can have it forget them the same way it learned them — when it suggests the word, try tapping on the small [x] next to the suggestion. If you do this a few times it may "forget" the word.
You can reset the dictionary entirely by going to Settings > General > Reset:
