While I write, sometimes a dot "." appears at the end of a word

It's been a couple of days that while I write, no matter if in a document or excel sheet or here right now, sometimes a dot "." appears at the end of a word. How can I avoid this?

You do not say what exact Mac /model /year /size /retina /touchbar is this

or

what exact macOS you are currently running?



verify your software is up to date.



Check your preferences, have left your keyboard with default settings which maddeningly insert a period if you hit your spacebar twice. ?
