'Thumbs Down' emoticon; I agree John.
I asked Stephen about that months ago but never got an answer.🤔
Are these the accents you want? 😉âáà

You have to find the so-called 'Dead keys' on your particular keyboard.
On my German '"QWERTZ" keyboard they are at the left and right ends of the top row - the numbers row. Press one of the dead keys and then the letter key and and accent is applied to the letter.
The keys are marked ^, °, ´, and `.
I think on most mobile phone keypads if you press the letter key longer (Android), or several times quickly (other systems?) it will apply an accent to the letter. You'll have to experiment😉
Re Standardised keyboards; Whose standard or language??

This is what I work with

Have to switch it to QWERTY if I want things like pound signs🤔
£ appears instead of mz normal dollar sign, but now zou see that z and y have been switched around as well! Now to switch back!
Dat's better😉
Cheers, Doug
BTW Señor! If you have several language dictionaries installed on your PC (as I have) you can also do things like Señor by typing it in 'English and then switching to French. The Spell checker will then underline it as 'wrong'.
Right click on the underlined word and it should offer you the correct spelling with accent 😊
Re Umbra, we Big ol Softies already discussed such losses! 😭
