Terry,
 
How does this work?  What does it refer to?  The sentences or  phrases I 
don't know how to use them, can you explain a little more?

ok for you  folks having difficulty with interchanging letters, here is a 
hint. there is a  pattern to the braille letters. learn the pattern and you 
may have less  trouble interchanging letters.

a is dot 1.
b is a plus dot 2.
c  is a plus dot 4.
e is a plus dot 5.
f is b plus dot 4.
g is b plus  dot 4 5.
h is b plus dot 5.
so we have used all combinations with the  two top left dots 1 and 2 or a 
and b..
so the pattern now begins with dot  2.
I is dot 2 plus 4.
j is dot 2 and 4 5
so if you can remember the  logic of the pattern you may remember it 
better.the alphabet continues in this  logical style except for the fact that 
Louis Braille was French so some of the  pattern is  broken.
Cathy
