Hi,
Thanks for this site! I'll check it out. From first glance, this looks to be a goldmine for IPA resources.
Thanks again, and have a great day!

In Christ, Miranda

Hodwy folks,

Here is the best site for IPA in braille:

www.ruf.rice.edu/~reng/BrlIPA.html

This is the most updated version of the IPA, used by linguists.

Best,

sheri W-J

In French there is a contracted Braille system which is widely used in France. But the truth is that if you are going to take only one class, it's probably not worth for you to learn it. It has nothing to do with american contractions. Just remember the Braille signs for certain French characters which do not exist in English and you'll be OK. I don't know about german though.
