Hey Southern_ladybug0,

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Let's refresh the Auto-Punctuation setting by turning it off, restarting your iPhone, then turning the feature back on:

Turn off Auto-Punctuation by tapping Settings > General > Keyboard > Auto-Punctuation
Restart your iPhone - Apple Support
Turn Auto-Punctuation back on and test the issue

In addition to those steps, it's always a good idea to ensure your iPhone is updated. Updates help by installing bug fixes and includes security updates too. If an update is needed, back up first: Update your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support

Here's more information on the Dictation feature, just in case: Dictate text on iPhone - Apple Support

Let us know how it goes.

Take care!
