Hi, Jamie, the dot 6 in the beginning indicates a capital letter. If you
need any more help with Braille, you can always ask us crack Braille readers
and we won't steer you wrong. The words you were looking at mean "I can't".
Regards and kudos, Kim.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Braille help needed


I'm starting to scan a book that has a packet of items in the pouch in the
beginning of the book. One of the items is a small card with braille on it.
I think I can do it ok if it isn't too complicated (I don't know much grade
2 braille and I can only sight read braille so it's kind of slow going for
me).
 
Is the dot 6 that means the first letter of the next word is capitalized,
can that also be an apostrophe? So far I have
dot 6 dots 2,4 space dot 1,4 dot 1 dots 1,3,4,5 dot 6 dot 2,3,4,5 which I
thought would be I can T but that doesn't make sense. It makes more sense if
it is I can't
 
right?
