I got panicked as i have exam coming in and i searched for french keyboard and not a single video was helpful until this one. I am glad that you made this video. Thank you so much sir. 👍🏻
This was excellent. I looked at two different UA-cam tutorials and it wasn't working for me. You made yours very clear and simple and now I am off and running. THANK YOU!
@ Hugh A N ,this is undoubtedly the best video explaining the typing of all the accents .I am so very grateful to you .I appreciate the clear and detailed explanation. You are just Super .Thanks a ton & God Bless You abundantly.
Thank you so much!! After 20 years in the UK I have to learn how to type on the pc in my own language. Glad I found your tutorial, it will make my life so much easier! :)
Hmmm, on my new Windows 10 PC the Control-key combination does NOT work! So after research I found the best way: I right click the Taskbar, then choose "Touch Keyboard." With the cursor where I want it, I click on the Touch Keyboard, pick a letter, Click and Hold on it using the left mouse button, move the mouse to whatever accent I want, and click on it! Done!
@@glenrothwell6608 I'm pretty sure that if you set your keyboard to "International" layout it will work (although I don't have a PC running Windows 10 to hand to check...)
Microsoft should adopt Apple’s method of writing those accent marks. For those with a Mac, you just long press Option key with your intended key, revealing a pop up of all the accent marks for that letter, you select and continue typing. Very intuitive.
I was resigned to getting fail marks in my tests until I found this. I could not get alt+code to work for me. I tried doing my tesys on my cellphone but couldn't get logged into canvas.
how to type n’est? because it always appears with nést. do i have to double the ‘ and delete 1 to make that word? or you typed it with english keyboard?
Very clear set of instructions and it should be so straightforward but I don't seem to able to make this work on my windows 10 machine. Do I need to change any keyboard settings to get it working?
I'm afraid I no longer actively use a PC (I'm exclusively Mac these days) so I'm not sure of the exact settings but please change your keyboard layout to 'International' and that should do the trick.
That doesn't work for me. But, when I held all 3 together it worked in Microsoft Word. When I am in email thought, that instead puts my cursor into the search bar.
At last, the video that showed me how to successfully use my Windows 10 keyboard to type French accents. Merci beaucoup!! After many hours spent reading articles and watching videos which did not provide methods that worked on my keyboard, this one not only provided the correct method, but carefully showed how to do it.
Not working for Windows 10 Home Laptop PC. I tried a lot of times on notepad, wordpad, etc with various Microsoft language input methods especially the francais (french/canada) version and also the default English US input method. Please help !!!
I tried CTRL + SHIFT + & (all at once then release) ----> o or O. It makes the symbol œ on a word document. It didn't work in this comment section, though.
Thanks very much for this, Rachel. Since I made the video, I am no longer actively using a PC so am glad you have clarified the key combination for œ as in sœur, cœur, bœuf, etc. I'm not sure why it didn't work in the comment section... there's no problem typing that character on a Mac in Safari browser. (I wonder if it's browser-related at your end?)
Quarantine here and this helps a lot! Thanks! My French teacher asked the class if we know how to type accent using English keyboards lol (yeah she's French)
Hello Hugh, This video has helped many but for some reason this isn't working for me. I tried typing in google search bar and sticky notes, the accents were not typing. Could you please help me in this matter. I've been struggling for quite some time. Thanks
thank you sooooo much i was looking for this i even now subscribed you......................................... thank you so much i had been looking for this
Christ, one thing i really miss from Mac is how much easier it is, you just hold the key letter and it brings up all the relevant accents. This seems so slow and outdated. Window's what are you playing at
Thanks! I wish I had found your video a long time ago!!! I have been typing using the Alt + the three digit symbols, but the problem is that I forget some of the numbers from time to time. You give very clear, concise explanations. Question: is there a shortcut for œ or would you still have to type Alt 0156?
It's unbelievable how long it has taken me to find this, the clearest explanation on the internet. Thank you!
This is the most helpful french keyboard instructional video I ever saw.
That's very nice of you to say, thank you ;0)
@@hughan00 it doesn't work but I think why my keyboard is azerty
That's so true
Me too
TBH🥂🤓
THANK YOU
I've been taking online classes with quarantine and my french teacher makes us write in word documents. This is very helpful
That's great to know, thanks ;0)
It doesn't work for me.
@@OfficialJs_Jvonn use english international, you can't make accent with english U.S
same here for me
or buy a europe keyboard lmao
Thank you, Hugh! Most helpful online teacher of French that I have ever encountered online.
That's very kind of you, Peter!

I cannot agree with you more.
This video helped me a lot !!
Accent aigu - ctrl + apostrophe - release then e
Accent grave - ctrl + accent grave - release then e
circonflexe - ctrl + shift - press carrot then release then press e
trema - ctrl + shift - press colon key - press e
sedai - ctrl + comma - press c
so easy thank you so much for the video

This is the most helpful accent video I've seen. You just saved my life.
That's very good to hear ;0)
Thank you so much for this useful information. I was looking for this for so long finally!
Thank you this was a very clear video of this, much better than a few other ones I saw.

u saved my life with this, thanks a lot :)
Im the same but am doing a French course. Any suggestions for shortcuts as the touch one takes too long
@@glenrothwell6608 I'm pretty sure that if you set your keyboard to "International" layout it will work (although I don't have a PC running Windows 10 to hand to check...)
Thank you so, so, much!! This is the most helpful video I have come across in a long time 😇
One beer for this gentleman!
me, a french guy, watching a video of someone explaining how works the keyboards i actually use
and you don't even have the same letters.
Thankyou so much...was looking for this for a long time!!
You're welcome 😊
I didn't catch the part that you have to install the "International" keyboard first. Did you mention it? Most users have QUERTY keyboard as default.
you do not need international keyboard; ctrl & ÆŒß (s), ctrl @ Å, ctrl/ø, alt ctrl ^ š ,
Best keyboard educational video I ever saw
Thank you so much. It's really helpful for me. I wish I knew this video beforehand. I really appreciated your help. ❤
Bless this kind gentleman.
I found you so much helpful. Really really thanks. 💓
You're very welcome!
Which keyboard are you using? I'm trying to do this with a US-international and French Canadian keyboard and I am getting different results :(
Finally the info I was looking for, thanks a lot !!
Microsoft should adopt Apple’s method of writing those accent marks. For those with a Mac, you just long press Option key with your intended key, revealing a pop up of all the accent marks for that letter, you select and continue typing. Very intuitive.
I'm sorry, but Microsoft's way is much faster once you learn it.
I was resigned to getting fail marks in my tests until I found this. I could not get alt+code to work for me. I tried doing my tesys on my cellphone but couldn't get logged into canvas.
doesn't work for me do i have to download french keyboard? but if i have an english keyboard the A will be Q and some others letters
No, you don't need a French keyboard (or French keyboard layout) for this. Set your keyboard to "International".
how to type n’est? because it always appears with nést. do i have to double the ‘ and delete 1 to make that word? or you typed it with english keyboard?
Magnifique, j'ai utilisé sur un clavier Anglais..
Merci beaucoup pour cette vidéo. Un Grand LIKe

Quarantine here and this helps a lot! Thanks! My French teacher asked the class if we know how to type accent using English keyboards lol (yeah she's French)
it's easier if you change the input keyboard to US International PC and try '+c for ç, `e for è, shift+'+e for ë
