How it works
- Type or paste your sentence in the box above. Spanish → English mode is already on.
- Pause. The card shows “Your Spanish with accents” and, below it, the English in three tones.
- Click the accented line (or press Tab) to replace your text, then Copy text to paste it anywhere.
As you type, the keyboard also adds accents on the fly: a' gives á, n~ gives ñ, and ending with ? or ! adds ¿ or ¡ where it belongs. The card then checks the whole sentence and fixes anything you missed.
Why context matters
Many accent checkers just look each word up in a list. That fails on words that exist both with and without an accent, which happen to be the most common ones. Here a language model reads the whole sentence and decides:
| You type | You get | Why |
|---|---|---|
| esta casa esta lejos | Esta casa está lejos. | “This” vs “is” |
| tu sabes que tu hermano vino | Tú sabes que tu hermano vino. | “You” vs “your” |
| no se que paso | No sé qué pasó. | “I know”, indirect question, past tense |
| si, quiero mas te | Sí, quiero más té. | “Yes”, “more”, “tea” |
| mi papa trabaja aqui | Mi papá trabaja aquí. | Dad, not potato |
The rules behind each case are in Spanish accent rules.
What it's for
- Chats and emails typed on an English keyboard with no ñ or accents.
- Copied text from places that drop accents (some PDFs, old texts, forms).
- Spanish learners who want to check their accents and see the translation at the same time.
- Native speakers who type fast and prefer to fix accents at the end.
Limits
- The website has a daily limit on checked sentences so it stays free for everyone. Accents as you type (a', n~) have no limit.
- Each check takes up to a few hundred characters; for long texts, go paragraph by paragraph.
- Rare proper names may stay unaccented if the context doesn't make them clear.
Privacy
Your text is used only to make the suggestion and is not stored. We only count anonymous events such as visits and sentences tried, never your text.

Frequently asked questions
Is it free?
Yes, with a daily sentence limit on the website. The Mac and Windows app does the same in any program.
Does it add ñ and ¿ ¡ too?
Yes. Type “manana” or “como estas?” and the card returns “mañana” and “¿Cómo estás?”.
Does it work for Spain and Latin American Spanish?
Yes. Accent rules are the same everywhere Spanish is spoken.
Do you store my text?
No. It's used only for the suggestion and then discarded.
