Three Ways to Insert Accent Marks in Microsoft Word 

This tutorial's corresponding blog post is available at erinwrightwriting.com/insert-accent-marks-in-microsoft-word/. Thank you for watching!

Very helpful! Thank you.

Can you please tell me how to put accent marks above numbers in microsoft word?

Great explanation and video. BUT, what a convoluted process! Whatever happend to simple keystroke applications for commonly accented letters, eg the 'e' in cafe!!! IMHO, Word continues to go backwards!

Thanks for this video, very helpful; users just need to make sure that the "From" box in the lower RH corner is set to "Unicode (hex)" otherwise the Font Subset dropdown menu won't appear...

Find your accented letter, press shortcut key using either commands ctrl or alt plus mark plus letter, then press assign. I use alt v for čšž, ctrl, for ęį, ctrl. For letters ė, ctrl ' ćśźń, ctrl/ŁØ, plus already assigned ctrl grave vowel àèìòù, ctrl tilde ãõñ, ctrl, ç, ctrl & æœß, ctrl @ å, ctrl circumflex âêîôûŷŵ, ctrl " äëïöüÿ,

ARE YOU KIDDING RE HOW COMPLICATED THIS IS? WHAT DO PEOPLE WHO WRITE REALLY DO?

TIP to people with earlier versions of word/windows - Hi, I discovered this method only works if you choose the font style "Arial Unicode MS" from the drop down box on the left - it's the only font that gives you the drop down option on the right "combining diacritical marks" . Other fonts like Calibri don't allow you to combine diacritical marks. Once you've combined the letter and the accent mark in Arial unicode MS, you can then change the font to Calibri or another desired font. This tip is for people who don't have the combining diacritical marks supplement installed. Hope it helps someone.

Excellent tutorial. I just started working for a new principal who has an accent mark in her name and I couldn't figure our how to insert it. Now I know. Thank you!

Ugh, these are all options for languages that don't rely on accents. I used to be able to just type them, but something in my settings changed... Can't find it anywhere

I like your Microsoft Word video and I have subscribed. Please make more tutorials teaching us. Happy to say this is helpful in 2018.

Thank you so much, Erin! I always wondered where those various accents, cedillas, and all those little suckers were hiding;) Thank you for flushing them out for us:)) Your tutorials are clear, concise and most helpful. You have a voice like a bell, with crystalline clear & pleasant delivery:)

who’s here from the french homework

This was so helpful, thank you!

Erin, you showed us how to create a cedilla, which is nice, however not how to create it with the letter, such as Ç. I added this 'Ç' by typing 'letter c with cedilla' into my Google search engine. In fact, this is how I find any accented letters necessary to write French, Portuguese or Spanish words properly. I came to your tutorial hoping to learn once and for all how to simplify this process.

Thanks! This was excellent, and you have a lovely voice.

Very, very clear, I did not know these options, thank you. When writing in French it is a bit cumbersome to each time go to insert , what is your suggestion please.

Very helpful and easy to follow - THANK YOU

Helpful and worthwhile! Thank you!

I used to correct (change french words after typing from without accents to the words with accents) the words with the help of spell & grammar check and dictionary, it was faster, now I forgot how I did it, can anyone plz help!!

Brilliant tutorial Erin, thank you!! It took me so long to find out how to insert an accented letter in to one of my videos but your tutorial provided me with a shortcut in seconds. Thanks again

It's the most useless method.

Agh no b+ plus this time.. thanks

THe submenu to choose Latin Extended isn't available on the Mac OS. Hmm. Wondering where that would be. Thank you.

The second method described works well for Cyrillic text intended for beginning students .
