  5. L’accent grave (grave accent) • It is used to distinguish between homographs on the “A” and “U”. (ou vs. où, a vs. à) • It isalsofound on the“E”. In this case, it sounds like bed.

  6. L’accentcirconflexe (circumflex) • Found on all vowels, it can also distinguish homographs. (du vs. dû) • With the “E” it sounds like bed.

  7. le tréma (diaresis) • Found only on U, I, and E. • It requires you to pronounce both vowels.

  8. la cédille (cedilla) • Only on the letter “C”. • It changes the hard “k” sound to a soft “s”. • It isn’t needed before E and I, because it “C” says “s” before these vowels always.
