Hi all,
I'm learning spanish in duolingo, and I'm at the part of my lessons where I need to start writing things both in English and Spanish. The problem is, I can't figure out how to do the accent marks on my apple bluetooth keyboard. I know that if you're using the on-screen keyboard, you can long press on a letter and it will bring up a list of possible accent marks you can use, and I know that if you press the option key with the letter you want the accent over, you could do it that way, but what if there's more than one possible accent mark you can use for a letter? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also, I'm using an iPad air fifth gen.

Hi,

All you need to do is hit option+e, immediately followed by thee letter you need the diacritic mark on. To type, the tilde over the "n," type option+N followed by n. To type the rarely used accent over the "u, hit option+u followed by "u." Hope this helps!
