For example, [[hør]] (good), [[øar]] (oyster), [[ørgiøo]] (jelly fig), and [[Ørciw]] (Australia) are all written with ø. In many cases, the compound vowel [[øe]] may be substituted with "oe".

* In {{w|macOS}}, hold the {{w|option key}} while pressing o (or O).
* On Microsoft Windows:
** Alt-0248: hold Alt and press 0248 on the '''keypad'''
** using the "United States-International" keyboard setting, it can be typed by holding down the "Alt-Gr" (right Alt) key and pressing "L".
* In MS Word and EmEditor, the ø can be typed with the following keystroke: ^/o (Ctrl+Slash+o). This means hold Ctrl press Slash, release, then press o.

==History in Written Taiwanese==
 
[[Taiwanese Modern Spelling System]] originally used an o crossed by a backslash. This was replaced by ø in [[MLT|Modern Literal Taiwanese]]. In some cases it is convenient to use [[Q]] in place of [[ø]]. Usually the Q is made smaller font size.
