Turkish Braille Translator (uncontracted)    

FUNCTIONAL SUMMARY

The Turkish Uncontracted tables support print-to-braille translation of Turkish-language literary text in uncontracted Turkish braille. English text may also be processed as a sub-language, and converted to contracted or uncontracted English braille (following British conventions). The American Computer Braille Code (CBC) is also supported.

REFERENCES, HISTORY AND CREDITS

These tables were adapted from the then-current Irish Gaelic tables by Duxbury Systems, Inc. in November 2001, based upon information on Turkish Braille in "World Braille Usage," a joint publication of UNESCO and the National Library Service for the Blind and Physically Handicapped, Washington, D.C. (1990). Subsequent maintenance has been aided by feedback from users, e.g. a Turkish-speaking student at UCLA.
