iPhone - How do you improve voice to text for imessage and mail? Always gets just one word wrong......

I have a iPhone X with most current iOS
When ever I do a voice command and include the name of the city I live in "SURREY" which is just outside of Vancouver Canada, the iOS thinks I am saying SIRI and fills in the text as SIRI. I have been to 2 different apple stores and asked multiple "Experts" but no one gave me a solution.
One suggestion was to add a contact to my contacts named "Surrey", but that didn't work.

When I use any Text input apps this happens.....Text, email etc
I do not have this problem in goggle apps like maps or Google search etc.
Thanks so much

Did you add the phonetic first/last field?

☠ MASQ ☠

Keyboard > text replacement: SIRI = Surrey ??

MASQ : that is for text shortcuts. If I put in BTS in the first field (when I add) and in the second field (shortcut) You put in "Be There Soon"
So when I type BTS it will auto fill in Be There Soon... Doesn't help with Voice to Text with me verbally saying "SURREY" and in my text message it types SIRI, same in emails.
