What terminal are you talking about - is it TTY (the one you get when
you press Shift-Alt-F1, for example) or just some terminal emulator
under X (xterm, Konsole etc.)?

I don't know about any solution for TTY, but under X you can use Compose
key. There are a lot of tutorials about it on the Net, and you can find
all the default key bindings in '/usr/share/X11/locale/$LANG/Compose'
file. Note that you can also create your own bindings using ~/.XCompose
file.
