By using Alt codes on Windows you can enter any symbol or foreign accented letter. Alt codes are utilised by holding down the ALT key while entering the corresponding numerals, then releasing the ALT key.

Note that you must use the number key pad on the right, it does not work with the numbers up top above the letters.

German umlauts are as follows.

Ä is ALT 0196

ä is ALT 0228

Ö is ALT 0214

ö is ALT 0246

Ü is ALT 0220

ü is ALT 0252

Also commonly used in German language is

ß which is ALT 0223

How do put the spanish accent on the i on a keyboard?

It depends on what keyboard you are using (different countries have different keyboards - especially when they speak different languages).If you are using a US keyboard, there is no option to type í naturally. In Microsoft products (such as Word, etc.) there is a convention on PCs to use Ctrl + ' , followed by the letter over which you want the accent to form. On Apples, the convention is Apple + e, followed by the letter over which you want the accent to form.If you are using a Spanish keyboard, press the acute accent key and then press the letter over which you want the accent to form.

How do you put an accent over a letter?

maddymcD - After looking on lots and LOTS of websites, I have finally found a formula for accents that will work on my Mac. How these work - Press the 'Option' key and the letter specific to each type of accent at the same time, and then let go and press the letter (L) that you would like the accent to be over. These are how to do the different types of accents, and they will work on the letters 'n,N,o,O,a,A'. Type of accent, Sample, Formula Acute, Ó ó, Option+E, L(letter that the accent will be over) Circumflex, Ô ô, Option+I, L(letter) Grave, Ò ò, Option+`(symbol to the left of number 1), L (letter) Tilde, Õ õ, Option+N, L (letter) Umlaut, Ö ö, Option+U, L (letter) Example: To input the letter Ó, hold down the Option key, then the E key. Release both keys and then type a capital O. I don't know if these will work on windows or other computers, but for all those people out their that own macs, it is the formula for you! If this helps you, please recommend me. Thanks :) -maddymcD

How do you get different accent marks on top of a letter in English?

You have some way to get to the fonts that you are using. This is easy with Word documents. Go to the font and you will see that pretty much any combination of letter and accent will be represented on the list. You will have to do some clicking and highlighting, but you will see how you can copy the letter you want into your document. You cannot type in a letter and then, after it is typed, add an accent as you would when writing.
