In order to make a cedilla in uppercase, it is necessary to make the combination of keys presented below.
To make this symbol in a word processor :
- Keep the Alt key pressed then type the numbers 1 2 8 or 0 1 9 9 in a word processing insert (internet forum, comment area, ...) then release the Alt key. The "Ç" symbol will then appear.
In short : Alt + 1 2 8= Ç or Alt + 0 1 9 9= Ç
However, you should know that starting your sentence with a cedilla c is grammatically incorrect in french and should not be used in formal exchanges.
Troubleshooting
" I don't have a numeric keypad on my keyboard, what should I do? "
- If you don't have a numeric keypad on your keyboard, make sure you have activated the function Num Lock. If not, press the Fn + button Num Lock.
- If you do not have the function Num Lock on your keyboard, try first pressing the key Fn and then performing the combination with Alt described in the previous paragraph.
- If you still can't do it, don't hesitate to copy and paste the symbol from this article to the location of your choice.
"I have a Mac / Macbook / Apple computer"
If you have a Mac / Apple keyboard, the technique is the same. The Alt ⌥ key can also be called Option ⌥ but it is always the key just to the left of the Space bar.
