Typing Danish on your keyboard
The Danish keyboard has æ, ø and å as three real keys to the right of the letters, and the acute dead key next to them handles é. Nothing in Danish is missing from the layout. The problem is always the English keyboard or a layout that has silently switched, and then the Alt codes (145/155/134), US-International and Mac shortcuts here take over.
