Welsh alphabet |
Welsh Braille is the braille alphabet of the Welsh language. It uses one of the Grade- 1 1⁄2 shortcuts of English Braille, ⠡ ch, but otherwise print digraphs in the Welsh alphabet are digraphs in braille as well:
- ⠙⠙ dd, ⠋⠋ ff, ⠝⠛ ng, ⠇⠇ ll, ⠏⠓ ph, ⠗⠓ rh, ⠞⠓ th.
Accents are rendered with circumflex ⠈, diaeresis ⠘, grave ⠆, acute ⠒.
Welsh Braille has a number contractions as well.[clarification needed] Punctuation is as in English Braille.
