What is a French Accent Generator?

A French accent generator is a specialized tool that automatically adds proper accent marks (diacritics) to French text. This is essential for correct French spelling and pronunciation, as accents fundamentally change the meaning and pronunciation of words. French uses several types of accents: acute (é), grave (è, à), circumflex (ê, â), diaeresis (ë, ï), and cedilla (ç). Our tool uses intelligent pattern recognition to identify where accents should be placed based on French linguistic rules. Perfect for students, writers, and professionals who need to type French text on English keyboards or correct unaccented French text from various sources.

Frequently Asked Questions

Our smart mode uses linguistic rules and a comprehensive French dictionary to achieve over 95% accuracy for common words. Manual mode gives you complete control for special cases.
