Questions & troubleshooting
Are á, à and â the same character?
No. The acute, grave and circumflex are different marks with different Unicode values. Copy the exact spelling you need instead of substituting a similar-looking A.
Why is my a accent missing from the keyboard menu?
Available variants depend on your keyboard language and app. Copy the required lowercase or uppercase letter above. On Windows, Character Map is another option; on Mac, try Character Viewer.
Why did copying fail?
Your browser may block clipboard access. If the copy button offers a manual field, select its contents and use your device’s Copy command. The grids copy complete letters; Copy all joins the displayed variants without spaces.
