Can any of you help me find a simple solution to cause VoiceOver to stop expanding abbreviations? As an example, the four letters f e a t are often read as the word featuring. This is fine in the music app, but is a terrible thing when I'm reading the word defeat and hear it pronounced as defeaturing. I would like to stop hearing the letters r e v as reverend or c o l as colonel. Sadly, I'm struggling to find a simple setting to stop these things. Any help?

Expanded abbreviations.
Hi Travis, Here's a thought. Try going to settings, General, keyboards. Then turning off auto correction and predicted. I wonder if that would solve your abbreviation thing.
To turn off predictive typing . . .,
Hi Travis,
Here's my suggestion.
Go to settings>general>keyboard>predictive and double tap to turn it off.
I hope this helps.
Best!
