Well sort of...the alth the th is underlined so that means you Braille the letter a, letter l, then Braille the th sign.

I do not teach Braille, but sounds like Terrence does and I know Sahar does.

Thank you for the chart.  Can I ask for a little help with this?   Iam 
giving it a little look, but need to take time to get into it more.
 
It seems like I found a list of words and just want to be sure I understand  it.
 
example: a  l t  h (although
so  if you put the beginning in alphebet letters of Braile then that equals the word  although?

I haven't  found any of the combo letters yet on the chart, but I need to search  more.  example wh what dots are these?  Last, I don't understand the dot 5 thing.  This I found by holding down control and hitting arrow  key.
