Luxembourgish Braille is the braille alphabet of the Luxembourgish language. It is very close to French Braille, but uses eight-dot cells, with the extra pair of dots at the bottom of each cell to indicate capitalization and accent marks. It is the only eight-dot alphabet listed in UNESCO (2013). Children start off with the older six-dot script (UNESCO 1990), then switch to eight-dot cells when they start primary school and learn the numbers.[1]
- ^ In six-dot script, the digit 6 has the same form as the letter ⠫ ë that in other braille alphabets is resolved with a digit-indicator.
