Hello,

You could talk to the Hadley School For The Blind (https://www.hadley.edu/), and ask them to show you the Spanish braille alphabet.  It is almost the same as the English braille alphabet with only a couple of changes.

Subject: [NABS-L] Environmental Science and Foreign Language Courses

Hi everyone!
I have two important questions. Next Spring, I will take an environmental science course. One of the things the professor mentioned is called a colorimeter. I looked through Independence Science, and did not see anything that went with LabQuest, though I'm not a science major so I could have easily missed something. Has anyone used a colorimeter before, and if so, how?
For my major, I am required to take two foreign language courses. I am going to take Spanish 1 and 2. How should I handle this? Should I have as much material produced in Spanish braille as possible? I am an efficient braille reader, and my college will do this with ease. Or is there a digital route that I should take? Just so you know, I read all of my textbooks on a braille display because I learn better that way. 
I'm not sure how well I could switch from English to Spanish braille though. Has anyone tried learning a foreign language this way before?
Thanks for taking the time to read this!
