Typing on the BlackBerry Keyboard
Learn how to use accented and uppercase letters, symbols, and numbers on your keyboard.
Type an accented character
The list of available accents depends on the active input language. If you set multiple input languages, the accents for the
languages that can be predicted together appear for a letter. For example, when English, French, and German are set,
because their alphabets are similar, you get accent options for all three languages.
