Jean,

 

Suffixes and prefixes are uncontracted. See page 6 in
Braille Formats, Rule 1, Section 4.a.(1). 

 

a. Uncontracted braille. When the text refers to
spelling, grammar, or pronunciation observe the
following:

(1) Freestanding letter combinations and portions of
words must be written in uncontracted braille and the
contractions for to, into, and by must not precede
them.

Subject: [duxuser] contraction question

 

I'm working with material that is showing suffix word
endings such as -ing, -ed, -d, etc. I do know how to
force contractions and supress letter signs as needed,
but I can't find whether these kinds of contractions
are allowed when showing suffix endings standing alone.
Does anyone know?
