I’m still using Sierra, but for years now I’ve had two keyboards configured on my Mac since French uses so many different accents.

No, I never got around to looking at the keyboard. I'm pretty comfortable entering diacritics with the accent key on the US keyboard, so I probably won't play with the Spanish one again till I have some time on my hands.

Taking a break from housework. I removed Spanish from Languages and Regions. Interesting that it was still in Keyboard prefs so removed that too. Now the text input menu is as it was before.

Re: OMG, I can't believe I fixed it!
Thanks. I can't take much credit, though. It was sheer dumb luck. Since I had already checked that setting under keyboard prefs, I could easily have gone the rest of my life without looking at it in the extras menu. I just assumed they were the same setting under different locations, but apparently they're not.
