It is unlikely that someone in his life often encounters the need to emphasize a word. And how to emphasize the “Word”, and so do know a few. This is not strange, because everyone already knows how to pronounce a particular word correctly. And the need for stress is needed only in extremely rare cases. But still, if the need arises, then you need to know how to put emphasis in the "Word". This is what will be discussed in the article.
You will be presented with a choice of two methods that are sufficiently different from each other. But one thing unites them - the necessary operations can be done using standard program tools. That is, you do not have to download and install anything on your computer.
First way: using character code
If you want to know how to emphasize Word, the first method implies that you know the code of this symbol. Now let's talk in detail about how to put emphasis.
So, first of all, you need to specify the letter above which the accent mark appears. In the "Word" for this you need to set the cursor after it. After that, you will need to enter the symbol code: the accent mark is "0301". Feel free to type numbers on the keyboard. The last thing you need to do is press the key combination, instructing the program to convert the code into a character. This combination is ALT + X. By clicking it, you will see how the set of numbers disappears, and the accent appears above the letter before them.
This was the first way to emphasize Word. It implies the use of code, but if you do not want to remember it or are afraid that you will forget it, then specially for you there is a second method that does not require it.
Second way: using a character table
Those users who often use the Word program are most likely well aware of what a symbol table is. This tool allows you to enter those characters that you will never meet on your keyboard. This is a very useful tool, especially if you want to stress the letter in Word.
We open the table with symbols
So, the first thing you need to open the very table with the characters. To do this, in the program, go to the "Insert" tab. In it, on the toolbar, find the "Symbols" group. In this area there is a tool called the "Symbol" - click on it. You will have a drop-down menu in which it is possible to use special characters, however, it does not contain their entire list, but only those that were used for the last time. And if you did not put emphasis before this method, then you will not have it there. So, click on the "Other Symbols" button.
After that, the "Symbol" window will appear in the foreground - this is what we need. The next step is to search for the desired character and insert it into the document.
We search and insert the accent mark in the document
So, before you open a window with all the available characters. There are a lot of them, so it will be unreasonable to independently search for the accent mark, flipping the whole list back and forth. It is easiest to select the desired group to display. To do this, in the "Set" drop-down list , select "combined diacr characters."
After the action taken, the number of characters will be significantly reduced, finding the right one will be much easier. But you can use another search method. In the input field "Sign code" enter "0301" - and the desired stress symbol is immediately found.
As a result, you will need to select it and click the "Insert" button. However, note: in order for it to be inserted where it is necessary, you need to position the cursor after the desired letter, otherwise the symbol will appear in a completely different place.
Deselection
You can also notice that after setting the stress, the word in which it is highlighted by a red line. This is because the program considers this word to be spelled incorrectly. To remove the selection, you need to press the right mouse button and select "Add to Dictionary" or "Skip" in the menu.
