N with accent ñ ń ņ ň — copy & ALT codes
N’s most famous accent is the Spanish tilde: ñ is a separate letter that sorts after n in Spanish dictionaries, and España simply cannot be spelled without it. Czech adds ň, Polish ń, and phonetics contributes the hooked ɲ. This page collects every accented n recognized by the Unicode Standard — 27 characters in total (13 lowercase, 14 capital and digraph forms)
Each character can be copied with a single click, typed with its ALT code, or produced with the keyboard shortcuts proven below — no memorisation required if you bookmark this page.

How to type accented n on the keyboard
Two dependable methods, demonstrated with ñ (n with tilde) — both tested on Windows 11 and Microsoft 365.
Method 1 — Numeric keypad ALT code
WindowsType ñ into any Windows program using its ALT code, Alt + 241. You need a working numeric keypad with Num Lock on.
- 1Click exactly where you want the accented n letter to appear — in Word, an email, a browser field, anywhere.
- 2Make sure Num Lock is on. On laptops without a separate keypad, enable the embedded keypad first with Fn + Num Lock.
- 3Press and hold the Alt key.
- 4While keeping Alt held, type 241 on the numeric keypad.
- 5Release Alt — ñ appears where your cursor is parked.
If a code produces the wrong symbol: very long ALT codes (four digits and beyond) can render as a placeholder glyph in older apps. Repeat the same steps inside a Microsoft Word document — Word resolves the full Unicode range correctly, and you can copy the result anywhere else.
Method 2 — Unicode value + Alt X
Word & OfficeEvery character owns a hexadecimal ID — for ñ it is U+00F1. Microsoft Word converts that ID into the character itself.
- 1Open a Word document (or any Office app that supports Unicode).
- 2Type the four-character code 00F1 using your regular keyboard.
- 3Without pressing space, hit Alt + X together.
- 4Word swaps the code for the letter — 00F1 becomes ñinstantly.
This trick works both ways: place your cursor after any accented character and press Alt + X to reveal its Unicode value. It is the fastest way to identify a mystery character you have received in a document.

Accented N — questions people ask
The Windows ALT code for ñ (Latin Small Letter N with Tilde) is Alt + 241. Hold Alt, type 2, 4, 1 on the numeric keypad and release Alt. Inside Word you can type 00F1 followed by Alt + X instead — or simply click the character on this page to copy it.
On Windows use Alt + 209 with the numeric keypad; in Microsoft Word type 00D1 then press Alt + X. On a Mac, press the matching Option-key accent, release, then type Shift + N. Copy-and-paste from the grid above works in every program.
Hold the Option key together with the accent key, release, then press n. Option + E applies an acute accent, Option + ` a grave, Option + I a circumflex, Option + N a tilde and Option + U an umlaut. Alternatively press and hold the n key and a pop-up menu lists every variation.
Characters beyond the first 256 code points need full Unicode support. When a long ALT code shows a placeholder symbol, redo the steps inside Word — it resolves the complete range — or copy the letter directly from this page, which works in every modern application.
