apple pencil keyboard vs full size keyboard

Hello, I have seen similar questions on here, but none has the solution for me. I am using an apple pencil with my ipad. I also use the scribble function when I am using english to write. But, when I would want to use my native language (hungarian) which is not supported by scribble, I would like to switch back to the full size keyboard to type. However, I cannot. I don't want to close the app (so far this was the only thing that helped) that I am using every time this happens (it happens a lot...), and I havent found any solutions yet to my problem. So anyone knows how to get back the full size keyboard when using apple pencil?

(I tried pinching and resizing the small floating keyboard, tried tapping in the text bar with fingers but none of these helped, nothing happened at all)

iPad Pro, iPadOS 16
