Accenting Letters

You can look up accented words
without typing accents. If there are no
Multiple Forms, the Spanish Profes-
sor will take you directly to the word.
If there are Multiple Forms, you will
have to choose the correct word from
a Multiple Forms list. See “Choosing
Multiple Forms” on page 11 for more
information.
Remember, if you want to enter an
accent yourself, type the letter and
press until the appropriate accent
appears. You can also hold

f n

and

press

n

to get an ñ.
