This week travels away from what we normally talk about. Pronunciation basic is not commonly used, in fact, it would be something we use to run into all the time by using a dictionary. However, pronunciation is clearly still used for grammar, biology and science. This week is a nice reminder of how to know when and where to place a termination indicator, or making the decision to even use a terminator if a hyphen intervenes. Remember, a hyphen will terminate a Capitalized Word Indicator. See if you can find which example this rule is utilized in. — Denise Bean

The Weekly Dose of Braille is created by our Braille Transcriber, Denise Bean, with the help of our Instructional Materials team. It gives you a taste of braille examples that may be used in worksheets or textbook formatting. This insightful Weekly Dose of Braille brings your attention to the common use of Unified English Braille and how to implement these rules and formats used by braille transcribers and proofreaders. It is a miscellaneous mixture of tricky, sometimes challenging circumstances, that a braille transcriber may come across or question, but are neatly put into a Weekly Dose of Braille for your easy access. Provided each week is a downloadable PDF file on each topic, a brf file can also be made available for your convenience.
