Shai, Since other list members have already told you about using the Insert + number 4 on the numbers row to create the accent marks for Spanish, I will answer your other question. You will need to go into the language menu in JAWS and choose "Synthesizer Language" from that menu, and then choose Spanish. If you leave your synthesizer in English mode, it won't speak those letters which have an accent mark over them, plus the pronunciation will be awful. Buena suerte.

Any help with this would be appreciated. Sincerely, Shai Wolman
