Note |
Uncontracted braille is used primarily for those who are beginning braille readers. Its uses are mostly limited to early elementary school levels, English language learners, foreign language materials, and within Nemeth Code in a UEB document. It consists of all letters of a given alphabet and punctuation symbols. Contracted (grade 2) braille is used by more experienced braille users. It uses the same letters, punctuation and numbers as uncontracted (grade 1) braille, but adds a series of special signs to represent common words or groups of letters, a bit like a kind of shorthand. |
