Hi, I'm also having trouble entering accents into google translate. I did look around online for help, but I'm on a laptop and using the numeric keypad for alt-codes is extremely inconvenient. The only other way I saw of entering accents is via the traditional microsoft commands (ie, CTRL+' for an acute accent, CTRL+` for a grave accent, CTRL+SHIFT+^ for an accent circumflex).
Unfortunately, while these accents work in the chrome URL-bar, they don't work in the textbox used by google translate, and in fact they also don't work in the textbox I'm using to write this message, and I suspect it also won't work in gmail. I'm trying to read a french paper, and while I know some french, there are often words or idioms I don't know. It would make my life a lot easier if you could support these windows accent commands in your google translate textbox, so I wouldn't have to type what I want translated in wordpad and copy/paste that into the google translate textbox. thanks -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "General" group.
