@BettyBoo I have used the alt + the correct number combination on the keypad previous to them providing the one step on the number keypad. I like the idea of pressing one number, it makes it faster for me. I have touched the numbers on my screen before to make them work, but that is like exercise, LOL.

@BettyBoo My other common method is just to ignore the accent and wait three seconds for it to turn 😛 If you are trying to build points to bump words to mastered or something I think there might be a very small penalty but it's sometimes just worth it to move along. When I do that I do try to say in my head "A accent" so at least I am reinforcing it's existence.

@BettyBoo I've done that before :)

@BettyBoo I usually use my iPad or phone in which case I either am using voice to text by just speaking or I just long press the letter and cancel select the accent from a pop-up menu. When I do voice to text for things like Scribe it puts in the accent for me. I realize this is kind of cheating in that context but it also adds other challenges and since my goal is to focus on speaking it works for me. On my ThinkPad (Windows laptop) I think that method you suggest using Alt-A (or whatever letter) is the easiest. I do have to use the Right Alt button.

Don't tell Carlos that I just copy and paste sometimes LOL

@Cathy Reed Hi Cathy, on my Chromebook, it usually involves hitting the ALT key to put the accents on. Sometimes I just go to the Google translation page because they put it in automatically, then I just copy and paste.

Is anybody else using the number keypad to do the accented letters? I am so glad they have included the "vocabulary review" as being able to use the number keypad. The change of numbers was a little bit difficult to adjust to, but I found something that has helped me. I had purchased letter stickers because some of the letters on my keyboard had become faded over time. When I received the letters, they included 2 sets. I have been able to put the corresponding letters on my keypad, and it has made it much easier.

@BettyBoo No, couldn't make that one due to a lunch thing. I saw Vane was leading it though so I assume it went well.

@KateP Jajaja, me gusta El Spanglish! Were you on the live event this morning?

@BettyBoo ¡Jaja, diviértete! Lamentablemente, no puedo asistir.
