What a great question asking about what to do when a contraction is used next to a modified letter. This is usually not a common occurrence, but as more and more mixed-language literature is requested, such as Spanish and English understanding rules plus guidelines is key to readability. — Denise Bean
New Weekly Dose: Contraction vs Modified Letter
For more information and to see past Weekly Dose of Braille topics check out our Weekly Dose of Braille Page.
The Weekly Dose of Braille is created by our Youth Services Librarian and 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. It is a miscellaneous mixture of tricky, sometimes challenging circumstances, that a braille transcriber may come across or question. Provided each week is a downloadable PDF file on each topic, a brf file can also be made available for your convenience.
