You all know the problem! You want to type correct Spanish, but find it difficult to type the special characters, symbols, accents etc that Spanish uses which are not on a standard English keyboard.
If you use the Chrome browser you can install an extension for inserting Spanish characters. Look for "Spanish Characters" in the Extensions Store.
Another solution is to hold the ALT key down and use the numeric keypad to type the special number for that character:
| Character | Combination | Character | Combination | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ñ | ALT+164 | Ñ | ALT+165 | |
| ¿ | ALT+168 | ¡ | ALT+173 | |
| á | ALT+160 | Á | ALT+181 | |
| é | ALT+130 | É | ALT+144 | |
| í | ALT+161 | Í | ALT+214 | |
| ó | ALT+162 | Ó | ALT+224 | |
| ú | ALT+163 | Ú | ALT+233 |
