Hi all, so I’m learning Portuguese and had a very hard time trying to write on my English mac keyboard, here are the shortcuts you need in order to be able to type correctly accented portuguese – enjoy.
Acute Accent:
Option/Alt + E, Vowel = André
Grave Accent:
Option/Alt + `, Vowel = Às
Circumflex Accent:
Option/Alt + I, Vowel = Você
Tilde:
Option/Alt + N, Vowel = Amanhã
C Cedilla:
Shift + Option/Alt + C = Ç (I couldn’t find a word with the Large Cedilla)
C Cedilla:
Option/Alt + C = Condição
So to write André you would hold the Option/Alt key and then press e at the same time (this shows the Accute Accent), then the vowel you want – easy, peasy.
