Accents on vowels showing automatically when I double press e/o/a

My laptop (2023 M2 Mac Air Sonoma 14.4.1 OS) auto types a vowel with an accent if I double type the letters e/o/a as if it's set to French or Vietnamese. I have to tap the letter a third time to allow me to type keep, for example, instead of kép. Very frustrating. I'm certain the language is set to US. Help?

MacBook Air (M2, 2023)

Thanks for the response. I had changed the settings to US from Simple Telex in the language settings, but the top menu bar still showed Simple Telex. Just noticed that... This is my gf's laptop. She's Vietnamese. She clicked on that and changed the menu bar to show US. That fixed it!

Thanks again for the response
