Punctuation

This article relies largely or entirely on a single source. (January 2014)

Serbian and Croatian Braille differ in quotation marks, brackets, and in the period/full stop vs. apostrophe.[1] There is less punctuation reported for Slovene and Macedonian Braille, but what there is matches Serbian conventions.

Blank cells in the tables are unattested.

Single punctuation:

Print	,	.[1]	?	!	'[1]	;	:	*	-	_	/	&	§ and ¶
Croatian	⠂	⠄	⠢	⠖	⠲	⠆	⠒	⠔	⠤		⠳	⠯	⠬
Serbian		⠲			⠄					⠠⠤	⠌

Paired punctuation:

Print	“…”[1]	‘…’	(…)[1]	[…]	{…}	/…/
Croatian	⠶⠀⠶	⠄⠀⠄	⠦⠀⠴	⠷⠀⠾		⠳⠀⠳
Serbian	⠦⠀⠴	⠦⠄⠀⠠⠴	⠶⠀⠶	⠶⠄⠀⠠⠶	⠶⠆⠀⠰⠶

Formatting

⠼	⠠	⠨	⠘	⠠	⠸	⠌
(num.)	(end num.)	(Caps)	(CAPS)	(l.c.)	(emph.)	(super- script)

The superscript is reported for Croatian Braille; in Serbian Braille, ⠌ is used for the virgule /. In Slovene Braille, the emphasis (bold/italic) marker ⠸ is reported to be an abbreviation sign.
