There doesn't appear to be a way to do it, at least with the current version of iPhone firmware (1.1.1). I just went through the settings on my iPhone, and then Googled it and looked around. You're apparently not the only one who has found this annoying when using a couple languages.

Look around, but don't be surprised if you find nothing to help for now. :(

While I don't have the iPhone I do have the iPod Touch. And I do find the feature annoying at certain time especially when typing in other languages. BUT I noticed with the iPod that while I am typing and I see the Dictionary Auto prediction if I hit the small "x" on the right top corner on a couple of words in a row that feature turns off.

The only way I was able to turn it back on in going back to the Keyboard settings and resetting the Dictionary feature and then it comes back again.

I just stumbled on it by luck, not sure if it'd would work for the iPhone but they are basically one in the same OS so it should, give it a shot and let me know.

Cheers
