Czech Braille chart

With the exception of w, Czech follows international norms for the basic letters of the alphabet.

For letters with diacritics, there are two common strategies: (1) a dot 6 may be added (á, č, ď), or (2) the letter is reversed (ň, ó, ř, š, ť, ú, ý, ž). The Czech braille letter ř is the international form for w, so w has been assigned an idiosyncratic form, which is the reverse of ů. Í is a stretched i. É and ě are not derived from e, but are the reverse of each other.


The numerical prefix, ⠼, derives the second options in the table (the digits, %, ‰, §). ⠠ indicates a capital letter, ⠰ that a word is in all caps, and ⠐ indicates lower case. There are also prefixes for small and capital Greek letters, ⠘ and ⠨.
