Hi all, especially to UEB implementers,
I was able to reproduce this on NVDA latest next snapshot with BrailleNote
Apex, so the below issue is across screen readers. I'll take a look at
GitHub and see if new issues must be filed.
Cheers,
Joseph

That's correct, Focus 14 in the ElBraille and Focuss 40 with PC 4th gen with
latest firmware both running JFW 2018 latest versions. Yes, the issue seems
to be the back-translation. If anyone can help verify this using English
Grade two UEB and/or UK English it would be a big help.

Hi John,
Sorry if I missed this, but are you using the Focus 40 or another braille
display and inputting text in UEB or Grade 2 English braille and the problem
is with the back translation?
I used to input Grade 2 braille on a Focus 40 with no problem, but this was
several years ago. Please let us know what display you are using. These are
really bad errors and should not occur. I hope you get a positive response
from VFO. (hope that's the correct name of the company that bought Freedom
Scientific).
Best,
Terrie Terlau

Subject: Braille Translation Errors
I got really excited when I read Jaws has the new LIBLOUIS available. Sadly,
the strrange translation issues I was hoping would be fixed relating to UEB
English are still there. And there are two in UK English grade 2. It makes
me wonder why noone else appears to be picking them up? Does everyone else
input in Computer Braille? I really would like to know if this is the case
as maybe I should learn to do that too because these errors are quite big
and long-standing.
So the word 'first' comes out as first's if you use the contraction f and
st sign. The word it's comes out as x's if you use the letter x with
apostrophe s.
In UK English grade 2 anything with a double L comes out with the word
little in it. So ball becomes balittle and so on. Strangely the word 'first'
translates fine but the word 'it's' has the same error. I would really like
to hear if anyone experiences this? It only happens if contracted input is
used so if everyone is using computer Braille for input and UEB or UK
English for display they will not see it.
Thanks.
John
