Is your spellcheck always complaining to you too? Because I have no idea how to type that symbol on the keyboard, but the "English (United States)" dictionary assures me that I'm wrong and it is necessary.
I totally forgot that from French class. I remember that is separates syllables, but IDK the theory of it.
The é is easy to understand if you understand the sound it makes. Anywhere that an e would make the e sound but they want it to make the é sound, they put é.
You can type it via an alt code, though I don't know the code offhand, fairly easy to pull up a table of them for various accent marks via search though.

Just use spellcheck to type it for you. Or I guess you can add the English spelling without accent. It's correct either way.
I do the same thing for all kinds of accents. I don't even have my computer setup to type them; it's just autocorrect.

Ï is easy with a phone keyboard. Hold the letter I and choose.
