Hello,

You probably change the language of your keyboard:

To bring it back to normal, follow these instructions:

1-Firstly, access the Apple menu by single-clicking on the Apple logo in the top left hand corner of the screen. The menu will appear.

2-Move your mouse down and click "System Preferences". Doing this will open the System Preferences application.

3-On the top row of the System Preferences window you will see a flag with "International" written beneath it. Click on this.

4-You will now see a long list of languages. Ignore these, and click on "Input Menu", on the top right.

5-This is the keyboard layout window. Scroll down using the bar on the right, and when you have found your desired language, click on the check box on the left to activate it.

6-Close System Preferences by clicking the button on the very top left of the window.

Note: Quick step to switch keyboard entry --"COMMAND"+"SPACE"

Good Luck
