Siri dictation throws in extra words that I am not saying

When I dictate a text or other things, catcher Siri randomly throws in some form of the word catch whenever she wants to. It just happened above after the words other things achieve. I never said the word catcher. Catch the same thing is true of the word achieve a Chuchu in a sentence before last catchy. Catching. There it goes again so I will type the rest of this. You have to ignore “a Chuchu” to make sense of what Siri is typing in place of what I am dictating. Ever see anything like this before?

Wow BadBernie! Thank you on behalf of everyone for doing all that!

I was having the catchy word problem every day with virtually every text on my iPhone 11 pro max until I updated to iOS 13.2.3 two days ago and so far (knock on wood) it has not happened once since then.

It happens to me when using wifi. All of this, along witht he many sundry other problems, started after the horrible ios update.

Why on earth is this issue listed as solved!? It’s driving me crazy – and it’s driving me even more crazy that it’s marked as solved! WTF apple!? Are you trolling us?

Why is your response listed as solving the question? The problem persists, it is absolutely not solved. What on earth is going on?

This is absolutely not solved. I wonder if we all have a common app installed that is being allowed access to Siri.

Is there a place to report bugs like this? I just installed an update hoping to get this fixed & it's still there!!! Maddening! (I'm on iPhone 6S, not a new model.)

I have the same phone and the same OS edition; even with Siri turned off it still happens.

I'm going to suggest to everyone that we bite the bullet and buy a Samsung.

You're right, it must be the latest update because this was not happening when I first got my phone. So then shouldn't an update be able to fix it? Come on Apple!
