Default special keys on your keyboard

how do you make those foreign type of letters? like when you write uber, how do you type the u with the two dots on top?

search for it on a webpage and copy paste.

you have to use ctrl or alt in some combination, but its hard to remember. i usually do special characters in word and copy from there.

Æ= alt+402

usually you will have to buy a whole new keyboard. Like if you want to type uber like that, you will need a german keyboard. It's quite expensive
