Welsh alphabet

Welsh Braille is the braille alphabet of the Welsh language. It uses one of the Grade-1½ shortcuts of English Braille, ⠡ ch, but otherwise print digraphs in the Welsh alphabet are digraphs in braille as well:

⠙⠙ dd, ⠋⠋ ff, ⠝⠛ ng, ⠇⠇ ll, ⠏⠓ ph, ⠗⠓ rh, ⠞⠓ th.

Accents are rendered with circumflex â ˆ, diaeresis â ˜, grave â †, acute â ’.

Welsh Braille has a number contractions as well. Punctuation is as in English Braille.
