ipad dictation software changes text meaning

Too often my iPad dictation software changes words or blocks of text to gibberish after save. How can I stop this?

iPad Pro, iOS 12

Hello,

Lets try and rule out something. If you go into Settings -> General -> Keyboard -> Text Replacement. Are any of the gibberish words listed? If so then delete them and dictation should work like it should.

Hello,

It sounds like this may be something more serious. I would suggest contacting AppleCare for further assistance.
