FAQ
The Māori keyboard acts exactly the same, with one difference. You can press the ` key before you type a vowel to add a macron to it. The ` key is next to the 1 key at the top left of most keyboards. It's also the tilde (~) key, which might help you remember because it looks a bit like a macron.
A symbol (ˉ) written or printed above a vowel to show that it is pronounced with a long sound: "Maori" should be written with a macron on the "a." The five vowels come in long and short forms; the long form is sometimes signified in print by a macron (a flat bar) above the letter.
A macron is a line above a vowel to indicate that it should be spoken as a long vowel: ā, ē, ī, ō, ū, Ā, Ē, Ī, Ō and Ū. The Māori word for macron is tohutō (or pōtae - hat). For more detailed information on its use, see Māori Orthographic Conventions.
A macron is a straight line over a vowel (ā, ē, ī, etc.) which shows that the vowel in question is long, as opposed to short. Short vowels are indicated instead by a half circle mark called a breve (ă, ĕ, ĭ, etc.).
A macron (/ˈmækrɒn, ˈmeɪ-/ MAK-ron, MAY-) is a diacritical mark: it is a straight bar ¯ placed above a letter, usually a vowel. Its name derives from Ancient Greek μακρόν (makrón) 'long' because it was originally used to mark long or heavy syllables in Greco-Roman metrics. It now more often marks a long vowel.

Pressing the right Alt key (often marked AltGr ) before a vowel places a macron above it. Hold down the right Alt ( AltGr ) key. While still holding down on the right Alt key, press the a key on your keyboard. Release all keys. Now the next vowel you type in will have a macron placed above it.
For example, to insert the á character, you can hold down the Alt key and type 0225 on the numeric keypad. Make sure the Num Lock key is on. Another option is to use the Character Map tool in Windows. This tool allows you to select and insert special characters and symbols, including accented letters.
For example, to get an ā: Switch your keyboard to US Extended. Type ⌥a+a (i.e. press and hold the option key, press a while still holding the option key) release the option key and the a key, then type a again.
The importance of tohutō (macrons) in reo Māori A macron is a line that appears over Māori vowels, such as a, e, i, o, u. Why is it really important? It means that you can lengthen the vowel sound. The other reason is you can change the meaning of the word entirely.
