Keyboard issue - adds two spaces after every word I type

I've done all the things that I've seen in this discussion community - I have hit or clicked on everything that I see. I have the "period after two spaces" toggled off. I can't find anything to help fix this very aggravating problem. For a long while, it was putting a period after almost every word I typed. Now it's putting two spaces. Driving me crazy!

MacBook Air 11″, macOS 10.13

The current stable release of Ventura including bug fixes, security updates is macOS Ventura 13.6—I would start there.
