I have a very stuuuuuuuupid question, but am hoping someone
can help me...I would like to know how I can type in
Spanish, meaning, how do I put the accent symbol ` over a
letter and the ~ symbol over the n? Does anyone know what
I'm asking? Thanks.

Change your keyboard to English-International and you will have the ability
to do this.

Hi, Raven. If you're asking how to type Spanish accented characters in
Word, there are a number of built-in keyboard shortcuts available on
your current keyboard...

For accented vowels á é í ó ú, press Ctrl and ' (apostrophe) at the same
time, release both keys, and type the vowel.

For ñ, press Ctrl and Shift and ~ at the same time, release all three
keys, and type an n.
