@lborgav this is a issue that's been created a couple of times, as mentioned in #14126, for now avoid using those characters if you don't mind, i know that it might be a little cumbersome for a portuguese native speaking person, where you implicitely go for portuguese words. But until this issue is solved use this workaround, let's call it that.

Feel free to provide feedback so that we can close this issue in favor of the one mentioned above. And sorry for the trouble you're experiencing.
