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?
