Scribble Auto-Correct Issue

How do I turn off auto-correct when using my Apple Pencil 2 and Scribble? Its predictive spelling is driving me mad, as it gets the words wrong or doesn't capitalize, and I can't override it.

Writing words in all caps on pages W/ Apple Pencil I was attempting to write a word like 'HOME' on pages and it kept "correcting" it back to 'home' I looked on the guides on here. One person said to write a word larger than average, that did not work for me, I made mine almost 2 inches long and it still changed it back to lowercase. Another post asks a very similar question to mine but instead of a solution they are only linked this page which while helpful, it does not provide any solution to the actual question Do more with Apple Pencil - Apple Support, there are some other redirecting links that provide more granular look into the features. The feature that I am using is Scribble found here:Enter text with Scribble on iPad - Apple Support. Neither of the aforementioned links have information regarding how to capitalize an entire word on the pages app. Is this not a feature?

Autocorrect ignores "Learn Spelling" words on IPad Pages I am new to pages but have recently begun to use iPad Pro and Magic Keyboard to compose. So nice! I usually use Word for Mac on my MacBook to compose and am used to autocorrect not ignoring things I've added to my dictionary. Yet consistently in Pages I will type a word that pages has ostensibly learned and then it will autocorrect it. I go back and fix the word and check to make sure it says "unlearn spelling" so I know it has been marked correctly and invariably it does so the words are correctly marked. It changes them to something else despite the learned spelling as it's being composed--I'm not running spell check over the whole doc. Help? How do I get it to quit ignoring the words I've told it to learn? I love autocorrect for general typing messiness, so i would prefer not to turn it off completely.
