ipad pro 11 folio typing out the wrong symbols

My iPad Pro folio keyboard types out all the wrong symbols. Letters are all fine but when I hit the semicolon, I get this ñ. The equal sign is this ¡. Forward slash is this -. And so on. The symbols above the numbers are also all scrambled but the numbers themselves are fine. Anyone know how to fix this_


That was a question mark at the end of that last sentence, by the way.


Thanks

Tried changing the hardware keyboard to US, ABC, and automatic. No difference on any of them. Restarted the iPad after each but still no luck.

That's odd. Your description of the keying problems indicates pretty clearly that the Hardware Keyboard setting is for Spanish ISO, as shown below:



Changing it to US should normally fix the problem. Please post a screenshot of your Hardware Keyboard settings.
