Mixing Apostrophes and Capitalized Word Indicator
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.
“I’m not sure how to transcribe a name that is all capitalized with more than 1 apostrophe.”
Thank you for such a great question. Because of the different options of transcribing, always keep in mind the braille reader. Keeping it simple will help support readability.
Have a fantastic week!
Denise
