Final answer:

Jeremy can find keyboard shortcuts in Word by checking tooltips, using the 'Tell Me' feature, consulting the Word documentation, or searching online. If unsure, he can also experiment with common modifier keys and associated letters.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Jeremy is trying to find a keyboard shortcut in Microsoft Word, he can use the following methods to discover it:

  • Review the tooltips that appear when hovering over buttons in the toolbar, which often include the keyboard shortcut.
  • Use Word’s built-in ‘Tell Me’ feature (a search box) to type in what he wants to do, and it will often show the keyboard shortcut.
  • Consult the Word documentation or help files, which typically contain a list of keyboard shortcuts.
  • Search online for the specific function he wants to perform in Word along with the term ‘keyboard shortcut’.

If Jeremy still can't find the keyboard shortcut after trying these methods, he could experiment with commonly used modifier keys (like Ctrl, Alt, or Shift) in combination with other keys that might logically be associated with the function he is trying to perform.
