As you already know, since a few weeks ago I am living in Munich, Germany. It has been a big change, both personal and professional... and also the reason of my absence around here.
Now, I am trying to recover "normality", but with a small difference: even when I still write in Spanish and English (maybe I will start also in German soon...), now I use a Spanish keyboard (as now, from home), and sometimes one in English at work, connected to a German laptop... a small chaos, you can imagine.
Keys layout do not match, I cannot find the "ñ", no accents... This reminded me of my University time and that post for the local humour magazine without a single "P" in it (but that's a different story).
Now, I have a "post-it" on my monitor with the character codes for special Spanish and German letters, so I can type them with my English keyboard... In case you are in a similar situation, here is a small summary:
Spanish letter | Alt + | German letter | Alt + |
á | 0225 | ä | 0228 |
é | 0233 | ö | 0246 |
í | 0237 | ü | 0252 |
ó | 0243 | Ä | 0196 |
ú | 0250 | Ö | 0214 |
ñ | 0241 | Ü | 0220 |
Ñ | 0209 | ß | 0223 |
¿ | 0191 |
Now you don't have any excuse not to write Spanish or German properly from abroad...
