so i have noticed that most of you don't post accent marks where they need to be in your posts! this is understandable, not many people know how to type these things... but i'm gonna teach you how!

this is how it works on a mac:

first, hold the button called "option" or "alt" with the "E" key. then hit the letter you want to give the accent mark.

for a tilde, hold the same keys, except with an "N" instead of an "E". then hit the letter you want to give the tilde to.

i don't really know how this works on a pc, but im sure its something similar.

hope i helped!

You're right. In my case, and I think other spanish speakers too, It's hummm how to say it... hummm Teddyyyy help meeeee T.T
No suelo poner todos los tildes cuando escribo, solo por una cuestión de velocidad... El poner más tildes, te lleva más tiempo >.<
Pero tenés razón, hay que ponerlos... That's what I want to say ^^'' I know you can speak Spanish, hope you can understand me. I put all the accent marks xD

Yeah putting accents take more time and we are not looking to write better all the time, my laptop doesn't even put the accents (I have to look 4 them elsewhere). But in my last normal pc I had to use Alt+160=á Alt+161=í, Alt+162=ó, Alt+163=ú, Alt+130=é.

para nuestros teclados podes usar los que tienen los tildes en el borde inferior izquierdo de la tecla que esta al lado del enter y luego la vocal, es más cómodo, pero igual... cansa xD pero se convierte en un mal hábito...

idk how to write the sound... but ñ and Ñ are the same: Ñ is in capital: A=a Ñ=ñ >.<

I guess you can say the "ñ" sounds like the "ny" in the Spanish soccer team "Espanyol" but it really needs a vowel after it, so it wouldn't just sound like "nee."

Dang, that's tricky to explain. I hope I got it partly right.
