Umlauts, anyone?
Susanne Norris | December 6, 2010 | 7:31 amHow do I make those letters with the umluats?
Here’s how:
ß: Alt 225
ä: Alt 132
ö: Alt 148
ü: Alt 129
Ä: Alt 142
Ö: Alt 153
Ü: Alt 154
On a Mac:
Use the OPTION key. Hold down OPTION and push ‘s’ to get ß. For the umlauted characters, hold down OPTION and push ‘u’. Release OPTION, then type the desired base letter (a, o, u, A, O, or U). The umlaut will appear over the letter you typed. (So to type ü, you should hold down OPTION, press u, then release OPTION and press u again, to get an ö, hold OPTION, then press u, then release OPTION and press o. )
