8.5.2A passage is three or more symbols-sequences and it may include
non-alphabetic symbols. |
8.5.3A capitalised passage is terminated by the capitals terminator
immediately following the last affected symbols-sequence. |
8.5.4A capitalised letter or letters-sequence placed adjacent to the
beginning or end of a capitalised passage is not necessarily
considered to be part of the passage, especially if it is separated from
the passage by a space or punctuation. |
8.5.5When transcribing a capitalised passage which extends over more
than one text element (e.g. a series of paragraphs, or a numbered or
bulleted list of points), each text element is preceded by the
capitalised passage indicator and the capitals mode is terminated only
at the end of the final text element. |
8.5.6When transcribing a capitalised passage which extends over more
than one text element and where the text elements do not constitute
a continuous passage (e.g.: a series of headings), each text element
is capitalised separately. |
8.5.7A single heading is capitalised as a unit even if it extends over more
than one braille line. |
8.6.1The capitals terminator is placed after the final capitalised letter
either within or following the symbols-sequence. |
8.6.2The capitals terminator may precede or follow punctuation and other
terminators but it is best that indicators and paired characters such
as parentheses, square brackets and quotes be nested. That is, close
punctuation and indicators in reverse order of opening. |
8.6.3If it is necessary to terminate the capitals mode before the end of a
symbols-sequence, place the capitals terminator after the last
affected letter of either capitals word mode or capitals passage mode. |
8.7.1The dot 6 prefix, the capitalised word indicator or the capitalised passage indicator is placed immediately before the first capitalised letter or modifier to that letter, such as a cedilla, grave accent or circumflex. Only a modifier or ligature indicator may come between the capitals indicator and the letter. Refer to: Sections 4.2 and 4.3, of Letters and Their Modifiers, for the
list of symbols considered to be modifiers to letters. |
