The Spanish (Spain) layout

The layout used in Spain keeps QWERTY letters and adds Ñ to the right of L. The inverted marks ¿ ¡ sit on the key left of Backspace, ç is beside Enter, and the accents are dead keys: press ´ then a vowel to get á. The number row types ! " · $ % & / ( ) = with Shift, and AltGr reaches @ # € [ ] { }. It is an ISO board, so Enter is tall and there is an extra < > key beside the left Shift. This is different from the Latin American layout used in Mexico and South America.

How to test a Spanish keyboard

Press every key row by row, then hold Shift on the number row and AltGr with 2, 3, E and the brackets to check the symbol layers. Dead keys deserve a special look: press ´ once — the tester counts the press even though nothing appears on screen yet, because it tracks the physical switch. If Ñ, ç or < never light up, those ISO-specific switches are the ones to inspect.

Spain or Latin American — which one do I have?

Look at the key left of Backspace: ¿ ¡ in both, but on Latin American boards the key right of L is still Ñ while the brackets { [ and } ] sit on the two keys beside Enter, and | takes the top-left key. If that describes your keyboard, use the Latin American keyboard tester instead.
