Random partial words added while deleting

My S23 keeps adding partial words to the text I'm trying to delete so I can edit a misspelling, or autocorrecting words as I go with extra letters.

An example would be misspelling "blanket" and hitting delete to back up a few letters to fix it, it might add the letters esky to the end of the word. This happens repeatedly unless I delete the whole word and start over. I have tried rebooting but it won't stop.

Or I might be typing "understanding" and when I get to the ing, it will finish the word but add extra letters --> "understanding ing"

What is going on and how do I fix it?

I noticed that sometimes also I just blame the predictive test or auto correct

Does that include letters getting added as you type? Or while you're deleting more letters get added so you can't easily delete the word because it just gets longer as you delete it?

Sometimes it ads letters or something to what I'm typing as if it's anticipated my word typing or what I wanted to type if that makes sense at the top of the keyboard there's suggested words or correct spellings I tap those often
