Dictation & punctuation

How do I stop dictation from automatically adding punctuation? For example, say I want to include words like comma and period in my text, how do I stop these from being concerned to punctuation?

since last update dictation adds unnecessary punctuation iPhone8 Since the last update using dictation in text or email dictation adds commas like crazy where I did not dictate a comma or pause while speaking adds question marks without me dictating "question mark" to any change in tone just taking a lot of liberties with punctuation is there a new setting or feature for that? where do I find it to adjust it? I'd prefer punctuation on command thank you

Dictation capitalizes mid-sentence When I use dictation, if I pause in the middle of a sentence, It often capitalizes the word I say after the pause. In that last sentence, I paused three times and it made the mistake once (It). Since most of my interaction with the computer is through dictation, This happens with annoying frequency. Why does it make this mistake and how do I stop it from doing it? Thank you!
