About the accented letter Q

The letter Q carries 2 accented forms in the lists we cover here: 1 lowercase and 1 uppercase. These range from everyday characters like ɋ to far rarer variants you will mostly meet in specialist or historical texts. Each one has its own Windows Alt code, which is exactly what this quiz drills you on.

How to type accented Q with Alt codes

On Windows, hold down the Alt key, type the number on the numeric keypad (with Num Lock on), then release Alt. For example, Alt + 587 produces ɋ. Codes shown with a leading zero, such as 0193, need that zero typed too. On a laptop without a numeric keypad, turn on the on-screen keyboard or use your operating system's character viewer. Study the full list below, then put yourself to the test.
