How to type I with accent

Accented forms of I are not printed on most English keyboards, but every device hides a shortcut for them. Pick your platform:

Windows

í
Alt0237
ì
Alt0236
î
Alt0238
ï
Alt0239
Í
Alt0205
Ì
Alt0204
  1. Turn on Num Lock so the numeric keypad produces digits.
  2. Hold Alt, type the four-digit code on the numeric keypad, then release Alt — the accented letter appears at the cursor.

Tip: Forms without an Alt code (like ı) have no keypad shortcut — in Word, type the code point from the table above and press Alt+X. No numeric keypad at all? Press Win + . for the emoji panel (Symbols tab), or copy the letter straight from this page.

Mac

  1. Press the Option combination for the accent — a highlighted accent mark appears, waiting.
  2. Type the letter i; the two combine into í (and its siblings).

Tip: Easier still: press and hold the i key itself and a pop-up offers accented forms like í ì î ï — type the number shown under the one you want.

  1. On an iPhone or iPad, press and hold the i key on the on-screen keyboard.
  2. A pop-up row of accented versions appears — slide your finger to the one you want and release.
  3. For a capital like I, tap Shift first, then press and hold the letter the same way.

Tip: The combos above come from the letter's long-press menu on the iPhone's English (US) keyboard (iOS 17+); Gboard and other Android keyboards offer similar menus, though the exact set varies. Forms missing from the pop-up (like ḯ) are quickest to copy straight from this page.
