Every letter on this page copies in one click — click a card, then paste anywhere with Ctrl+V (Windows), Cmd+V (Mac) or a long-press → Paste on a phone.

How to type P with accent

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

Windows

þ
Alt0254
Þ
Alt0222
  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 ṕ) 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

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

Tip: The press-and-hold pop-up has no accented forms of P, so the Option combinations above are the keyboard route — or copy the letter straight from this page.

iPhone & Android

  1. Long-press pop-ups on iPhone, iPad and Android don't cover accented forms of P (on iOS, only b, f, j, m, p, q, v and x lack a menu).
  2. Fastest route on a phone: tap the þ card above to copy it, then long-press the text field and choose Paste.

Tip: Every accented form of P is quickest to copy straight from this page — tap a card, then paste.
