Resolved (see comments). Thank you very much!

Hearing it say we apostrophe L L for we'll, I apostrophe m for I'm, and so forth irritates me so much that I have largely stopped using contractions in my writing...and I really like using them. They best match how I speak in real life.

@[email protected] Hopefully this helps delay some of the real life shit for you.

Lower your punctuation setting. It sounds like it’s on all?

Yes! That was it. Thank you so much.

Was driving me nuts. Amazing how something little like that can bug you to distraction.
