Apple included the 'suggestions' feature on the Safari browser which shows predictions relating to your search queries. However, it is a separate function from suggested words and phrases.

Many users clear their entire browsing history rather than targeting specific items they wish to delete.

How to Restore Files and Software Using Time Machine Backup on Mac
Time Machine creates a backup of the Mac operating system, including all files and folders, system preferences, installed applications, and others.

How to Manage and Remove Website Notifications on Mac Computers Using Safari, Chrome, or Firefox?
With Mac OS X Mavericks, Apple introduced a website feature to apply push notifications directly to the computer desktop.
