Presumably you refer to the Split Keyboard feature.


To restore the full on-screen keyboard, you can either (a) use two fingers (one on each of the two half-keyboards) and swipe the two halves together - or (b) touch-and-hold the “keyboard” key, then slide your finger to the Merge & Dock option and release.
