Question about Microsoft Surface Keyboard (2nd Edition)

On this keyboard, acute (é) and grave (è) accents are configured by combining the Ctrl key with another specific key before typing the letter you want. For example, for an acute accent, press Ctrl + ' (apostrophe) then the letter, and for a grave accent, press Ctrl + ` (grave accent) then the letter. This method works in Windows, particularly in Word and Outlook.
