Hi Jackie,
Another quick Google turned up this link:
https://support.office.com/en-ie/article/Word-for-iPad-Help-6567cf2a-c949-4213-912d-f7a14f6264c5
Again, apologies for the long URL.
As far as I could gather, you should open Word on your iPad, navigate
your way to:
Settings > General > Keyboard
and make sure Check Spelling and Autocorrection are both on. The
latter will become a nuissance if you switch to another language,
allegedly.
HTH!
John
