Writing in spanish

*"I must write accents and the letter "ñ""*

Type: Option-n
Type n

ñ

Oddly enough, you press option - n and then n again. So ñ.

If you want to make this é, then you press option - d and then e, meaning the first time sets the accent mark. It happens that option - n is the same combination as the n you then need to press.

Hi temisa,

This site may help you. http://tlt.psu.edu/suggestions/international/accents/codemac.html#accent It has the codes for lots of popular accents. Typing them out seems kind of weird at first, but I think it's actually much easier than the Windows alt codes. Say you want to type a "ñ" - simply hit Option + N, (after which you'll see a tilde appear on the screen without any letter beneath it), and then let go of the Option key and hit N again. The N will then appear under the tilde. It works like this for all the letters, and believe me, it gets easier to remember than all those numbers for the alt codes!

I type in Spanish a lot so I made a webclip widget of the Letters with Accents box on that page, which might be useful for you to do too. Hope this helps! 🙂

hi...
Go to System Preferences and choose International
then go to the Input Menu tab. There you just
have to choose the Spanish option (the one with the Spanish flag)
and you will get your keyboard configurate for spanish language,
with the ñ besides the l, and the accents besides the p.
