First Strike
First Strike
One of the most common questions I hear students asking is, “how do I type spanish accent marks and upside down punctuation marks?” There in luck because its quite simple. You’ll be typing characters like ¡ ¿ á é í ó ú in no time at all. Just follow these instructions:
Windows XP
1. Log On
2. Click the Start button
3. Click on Control Panel
4. Click Regional and Language Options – a new window will pop up
5. Click the Languages tab
6. Click on the Details button
7. Click the Add button – a new window will pop up
8. Select United States-International (keyboard layout menu)
9. Click OK
10. Click Apply
11. Read the instructions for “Using the U.S. – International Keyboard” below.
Note: You will now have a keyboard icon on the taskbar (usually on the right side). To switch between keyboard layouts click the keyboard icon on the task bar and choose which layout you want to use. Changing the keyboard layout will only affect the log on profile used. No other users will be affected.
Using the U.S. – International Keyboard
If you followed the above directions carefully, your keyboard will now react slightly differently than it did before. First of all, notice that if you strike the single apostrophe (‘) key, nothing happens. To type the single apostrophe now, you must strike the single apostrophe key and then strike the space bar. When you strike the space bar, the apostrophe will appear.
The next thing to note is that the quotes (“) key behaves the same way as the apostrophe key. You must first strike the quotes key and then strike the space bar in order to create the (“) symbol. These two minor inconveniences are more than made up for by the ease with which you can now type the special characters.
To type the special characters, two keystrokes are required. To type the á, you need only strike the apostrophe key and then the letter a. The other characters are just as easy:
To type: á = ‘ + a
To type: é = ‘ + e
To type: í = ‘ + i
To type: ó = ‘ + o
To type: ú = ‘ + u
To type: ñ = ~ + n
To type: ü = ” + u
To type the special punctuation characters, you need to hold down on the Alt key while you strike the appropriate punctuation mark. On some keyboards, only one of the two Alt keys will work for this:
¡ = Alt (hold down) + !
¿ = Alt (hold down) + ?
If you would like to view a visual interpretation of the US – International Keyboard you can do so here. Just select the US- International Keyboard from the drop down menu.
Another good resource can be found over at Wikipedia.

He has a unique ability to help language learners access the cultures behind the language which in turn helps keep students motivated and excited about learning the language.
Cory has also spent hundreds of hours putting what he has learned into practice with native Spanish speakers. He has studied Spanish at the Latin American Association, Georgia Perimeter College, and Georgia State University. He has also taught English to Spanish speaking immigrants at a missionary church in Georgia.
Cory is conversationally fluent in Spanish and he knows the challenges that language learners face. His goal is to help others learn Spanish by supporting them in their efforts and by pointing them in the right direction. He believes that the best technique to use in learning a language is to teach others what he has learned even though he is not a professional teacher. By teaching we internalize knowledge more fully and tend to live what we teach.
