Autocorrecting of " to « in macOS TextEdit, Notes, etc

When I type " , it is replaced with « throughout macOS.


This has only just started so I have clearly inadvertently changed a setting.


Looks to me as if it thinks I am working with French rather than English.


But I have hunted high and low in MacOS keyboard and language settings but can't find the setting I need.


Does anyone have any ideas please?


Thank you!

MacBook Pro

Hi,


I don't know what OS you're on and don't know if it will be the same, but have you looked in System Preferences > Keyboard > Text?
