Keyboard shortcuts for international characters
For keyboard shortcuts in which you press two or more keys simultaneously, the keys
to press are separated by a plus sign (+) in Microsoft Word Help. For keyboard shortcuts
in which you press one key immediately followed by another key, the keys to press are

includes the SHIFT key, hold down the CTRL+SHIFT+symbol keys simultaneously, and then
release them before typing the letter.
