For Android it is difficult to give general instructions since every model differs….Hold down the “alt” key on your keyboard and type one of these codes:

β • (b) (lowercase, uppercase Β) Lower-case beta (βήτα), the second letter of the ancient Greek alphabet. It represented the voiced bilabial plosive: /b/. It is preceded by α and followed by γ.

In German, the ß character is called eszett. It’s used in “Straße,” the word for street, and in the expletive “Scheiße.” It’s often transliterated as “ss,” and strangely enough, it’s never had an official uppercase counterpart. When writing the uppercase [of ß], write SS. It’s also possible to use the uppercase ẞ.

In many languages, the letter “ö”, or the “o” modified with an umlaut, is used to denote the non-close front rounded vowels [ø] or [œ]. In languages without such vowels, the character is known as an “o with diaeresis” and denotes a syllable break, wherein its pronunciation remains an unmodified [o].

Æ (minuscule: æ) is a grapheme named æsc or ash, formed from the letters a and e, originally a ligature representing the Latin diphthong ae. It has been promoted to the full status of a letter in the alphabets of some languages, including Danish, Norwegian, Icelandic, and Faroese.

1. ä : Alt + 0228.
2. ö : Alt + 0246.
3. ü : Alt + 0252.
4. ß : Alt + 0223.
5. Ä : Alt + 0196.
6. Ö : Alt + 0214.
7. Ü : Alt + 0220.

To get the ß (scharfes s), simply hold down the RIGHT Alt key (to the right of the spacebar) and hit the s-key. That will give you ß — once the international keyboard is set.

Senior Member. 1. “á and à” are the same, but just “á” does not exist. When using just the character “a”, the correct is “à”.

In Danish, ø is also a word, meaning “island”. The corresponding word is spelled ö in Swedish and øy in Norwegian. Ø is used as the party letter for the left-wing Danish political party Red-Green Alliance (Enhedslisten).

A few words about Å Ä and Ö Indeed, some Swedish Pauls actually spell their names Pål. The sound is long, as in a long ‘Pååål’, or ‘poor’. Ä This letter can be thought of as the English ‘ai’ in ‘pair’, or ‘hair’.

The letter was originally an A with a lowercase e on top, which was later stylized to two dots. In other languages that do not have the letter as part of the regular alphabet or in limited character sets such as US-ASCII, Ä is frequently replaced with the two-letter combination “Ae”.

It is rather the other way round: many Swedes find it difficult to pronounce a ‘w’ in English words. In Swedish alphabetical order, v and w traditionally are regarded as the same letter, much like in German ‘ä’ or ‘ö’ are treated like ‘a’ or ‘o’, respectively.

The pronunciation of long “i” in Swedish is pretty close to the common “e” in English. I can only repeat my impression that the long “i” sound in Swedish words like bil or vitis very different from the corresponding sound in my native language (German) or in English or French etc.

The most common greeting in Sweden is a handshake. It is usually firm and accompanied with direct eye contact. Most adults will shake hands with each person present when entering or leaving a social setting.

The letter Å (å in lower case) represents various (although often very similar) sounds in several languages. It developed as a form of semi-ligature of an A with a smaller o above it to denote a long and darker A, a process similar to how the umlaut mark developed from a small e written above certain letters.

It’s called a ring (bet that surprised you) and it isn’t actually considered a diacritic, but part of the letter itself, which is considered different from the letter it appears over, usually an A or U (Å å Ů ů). It’s used in Danish, Norwegian, Swedish and the Belgian Romance language called Walloon.

German has three extra vowels: ä, ö, and ü. The German word for those curious double dots over the vowels is Umlaut (oom-lout) (umlaut). Umlauts slightly alter the sound of the vowels a, o, and u, as outlined in this table. These sounds have no equivalent in English.

A with Circle above [å or Å] Quick Guide To type the A with circle on Mac, press Option + A for lowercase and Option + Shift + A for Uppercase. For Windows users, simply press down the Alt key and type 0229 or 0197 using the numeric keypad, then let go of the Alt key.

– “ä” as in “hängen” is pronounced like the English word “ten”.
