Apple Pencil - Scribble converting to English even though not being used in English

I mainly use Apple Pencil (Scribble) to write in Russian, as i am not familiar with the Russian keyboard. While i am using Apple Pencil, it occasionaly tries to convert my writings into English, even though Russian is choosen as the language of Scribble. I want it to completely ignore English handwriting detection while i use Scribble without having to remove English from my system languages. Is there a way to do so? Thanks in advance.

It is. I think the support came with the last update. And it works fine most of the time. But it can be annoying when it doesn’t. As an example, for some reason i am unable to write the russian word “очень” using Scribble, which is one of the most frequently used words in the language. Most of the time it tries to convert my handwriting to latin letters and i get a result like 04Е45 (i typed that word using Scribble, trying to write “очень”). There are also some other very basic and frequently used words like that, that have the same problem.
