iPad tells me my email is an invalid email
I want to set up email on my IPad, but it tells me it’s an invalid email. It’s the same email I use on my IPhone and everywhere else

Are you using the native Mail App or something else to access your email account? If using the native Mail App, you should be able to add the email account to your iPad:
Add an email account to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Be aware that some email providers now require the use of App Specific Passwords when accessing mail over IMAP or POP3. If this applies to your email account, you will need to generate a unique password for your iPad email account - that will differ from your normal Account Password. As examples - AOL, Yahoo, Google, Microsoft all use App Specific Passwords when using anything other than their own email client Apps.
If you need to generate an App Specific Password, you’ll need to log-in to your Mail Providers account management webpage - using a web browser - and generate the Password from the appropriate account security page.
