Combining accents are located on the standard / and \ keys. Type an accent after a vowel to add it on the vowel. If you've typed the wrong accent, just type the correct accent to replace it.
- á = a then /
- ǎ = a then \
- â = a then Shift+\
By holding the ALT key, you can return to the standard US English keyboard value of any modified key (such as p, r, q, v, x, and various punctuation). Shift-Alt will give you the standard English shifted value of the modified key (such as P, R, Q, V, Z, etc).
NOTE: When using Google Docs, / is typed Right-Alt+Shift+/ (Windows) or ⌥ Option+Shift+/ (Mac).
