10.13.8Retain the braille form of the lower wordsign for "enough" or "in" in
conjunction with the dash even when divided from the dash by the
end of the braille line. However, it is also necessary to follow the
lower sign rule. | |
10.13.9Do not use the lower groupsign for "be", "con" or "dis" when the
letters it represents precede the hyphen or fall at the beginning of
the braille line in a word divided between braille lines. | |
10.2.1Use the strong wordsign when the word it represents is "standing alone".
Refer to: Section 2.6, Terminology and General Rules, for the
definition of "standing alone". | |
10.2.2Use the strong wordsign when the word it represents is followed by
an apostrophe with the following letters: d, ll, re, s, t, ve,
provided that the resulting word is standing alone. | |
10.3.1Use the strong contraction wherever the letters it represents occur
unless other rules limit its use. | |
10.4.1Use the strong groupsign wherever the letters it represents occur
unless other rules limit its use. | |
10.4.2When the use of a strong groupsign for "ch", "sh", "th", "wh", "ou" or "st" would be misread as a word, braille the letters individually. Refer to: Section 10.2, for further explanation about using these
signs to represent words. | |
10.4.3Use the strong groupsign for "ing" wherever the letters it represents occur except at the beginning of a word. Note: The beginning of a word is defined as the letters-sequence
which follows a space, hyphen or dash and which may be preceded
by the punctuation and indicator symbols listed in Section 2.6.2,
Terminology and General Rules. | |
10.5.1Use the lower wordsign for "be", "were", "his" or "was" when the word it represents is "standing alone". However, the lower wordsign is not used when in contact with any punctuation sign, including the hyphen and dash, that has only lower dots. For the purposes of this rule, any type of quotation mark which may be present is considered to have only lower dots. When a capitals indicator or a capitals terminator is present, it is disregarded in determining whether to use the lower wordsign. Refer to: Section 2.6, Terminology and General Rules, for the
definition of "standing alone". | |
10.5.2Use the lower wordsign for "enough" when the word it represents is "standing alone". When a capitals indicator or a capitals terminator is present, it is disregarded in determining whether to use the lower wordsign. The lower wordsign is also used in the word "enough's". Refer to: Section 2.6, Terminology and General Rules, for the
definition of "standing alone". | |
