Unwanted output |

I am a poor typist. When I mistype a command name I get a lot of unwanted
output. For example, say I wanted to type: "file /tmp/,a" but type
"gile /tmp/,a":
___________________
gile /tmp/,a
Command 'gile' not found, did you mean:
command 'kile' from deb kile
command 'vile' from deb vile
command 'gle' from deb gle-graphics
command 'file' from deb file
command 'guile' from deb guile-2.0
command 'guile' from deb guile-2.2
command 'zile' from deb zile
Try: sudo apt install <deb name>

Not only is this annoying but it often scrolls out of view my current context.
I don't know who is doing this, so I don't to whom I can complain. I don't see
how it could be bash, because it couldn't know about sudo, or "apt install".
But neither could it be Mate, my window manager, or Ubuntu, because they
wouldn't know to mess with bash.
In any case, how can I stop this?
