Go to system Preferences > keyboard > input sources and remove everything except "US" or "ABC". If you do not normally work in English, let us know.

What is "obviously different"? Post a picture of your keyboard. Is it a QWERTY keyboard?

Use the question mark, apostrophe, comma, etc. keys.
Maybe better explain what the issue is.
In System Preferences : Language & Region, is the default Region set to the United States, and is the Preferred Language set to English (US) -- Primary? If it isn't then you will be using a US keyboard which will respond differently to a non-English language.
Er, they do not work. Not if I hit shift, control, option or command first.

Why would you "hit" control, option, or command to type punctuation?
Reboot your computer.
