Hi John,

It depends on your device...

Take a look at this page in FAQ’s -

https://kwiziq.learnfrenchwithalexa.com/faqs#span_id_accents_span_How_can_I_type_accents

 

Also this question has been asked already and may be a search would prove useful....

On Mac you can show the "keybord input source name" up on the top right of the bar, to the left of the day's date. You can show keyboard too. 

Go on You Tube to look at a video on exactly how to do this if you cannot figure it out.

(If you have a MS platform you can also watch a vid on You Tube for your type of computer) 

There's also the Symbols menu where you can find the accents and copy and paste OR better, learn the keystrokes. Most Email servers can adjust the language too, so you can choose French for your Email language setting and just type the word in, if you do a spell check, it will show the corrected word on a dropdown.  

Or buy a Mac!
