Typing Spanish Accents and stuff...

¡Hola mis estudiantes!

I've been asked so many times how do type Spanish accents and I've typed this and demonstrated it so many times, yet for some odd reason can't find my original or any of the other versions. Go figure!

SO, I decided to type it and place in the one place I won't lose it... HERE! It's actually a good thing that I can't find my original, because my computer software has been updated and my old way doesn't work. Isn't that a kick in the head. 

If you're using WINDOWS

  • Á  use  Alt + 0193
  • É  use  Alt + 0201
  • Í    use  Alt + 0205
  • Ó  use  Alt + 0211
  • Ú  use  Alt + 0218
  • Ñ  use  Alt + 0209 or Alt + 165
  • Ü  use  Alt + 0220
  • á   use  Alt + 0225  or Alt+ 160
  • é   use  Alt + 0233  or Alt + 130
  • í   use  Alt + 0237  or  Alt + 161
  • ó  use  Alt + 0243  or  Alt + 162
  • ú  use  Alt + 0250  or Alt + 163
  • ñ  use  Alt + 0241  or Alt + 164
  • ü  use  Alt + 0252  or  Alt + 129
  • ¿  use  Alt + 0191  or Alt + 168
  • ¡  use  Alt + 0161  or Alt + 173
If you're using a MAC
  • Á hold down Option +E, then type capital A
  • É  hold down Option +E, then type capital E
  • Í  hold down Option +E, then type capital I
  • Ó  hold down Option +E, then type capital O
  • Ú  hold down Option +E, then type capital U
  • á  hold down Option +E, then type lowercase a
  • é  hold down Option +E, then type lowercase e
  • í  hold down Option +E, then type lowercase i
  • ó  hold down Option +E, then type lowercase o
  • ú  hold down Option +E, then type lowercase u
  • Ñ  hold down Option +N, then type capital N
  • ñ  hold down Option +N, then type lowercase n
  • ¿ Shift +Option+?
  • ¡  Option +!  
Hope this helps!
