You should add (a "+" button) an "international" (search for this word)  
version of your keyboard layout (see the "layout" tab of the eponymous  
utility, in the "System Settings"). There is a "UK international" and a "USA  
international".

You then need to learn where to find the accents in the layout. They are to  
be typed before the accentuated letter. You can look at the keyboard layout  
from the utility.
