That table is based on the IHBC which was developed in the # mid-1930’s. Please see World Braille usage 3rd edition, p. 74. # # However, Classical or Biblical Hebrew, which is used in the Hebrew # Bible and other liturgical literature, contains cantillation marks # that are not supported by the Hebrew table mentioned above. This # table seeks to provide access to these accents. This table is also # based upon the tables mentioned above. This table only departs from # it where the accents are concerned. With this table, the user will # have access to the accents and Masorah in BHS and BHS Quinta. For # more information about the IHBC and how it was developed: # <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hebrew_Braille#:~:text=The%20International%20Hebrew%20Braille%20Code> # also see: # <https://huc.edu/library_blog/learning-about-hebrew-braille/#:~:text=The%20Code%20created%20by%20Brevis,books%20written%20in%20Hebrew%20Braille> # Special thank you to Ray McAllister and Matthew Yeater for # developing the braille for the cantillation. Also to Abby Howell for # the suggestions to include support for Yiddish. Extra gratitude to # Sarah LaRose, Eric Harvey, and Leonard de Ruijder for the helpful # suggestions. #-maintainer: Paul Geoghegan <contact@envisionly.tech> #-maintainer: Matityhau Yeshurun <yeatersink@gmail.com> # Copyright (C) 2024 Matt Yeater and Paul Geoghegan # always op code characters always ִי 35 # hiriq-yod always ֵי 3456 # tsere-yod always ּו 136 # shuruq always ּוְ 136-3 # Shuriq sheva always בְּ 12-3 # bet with dagesh sheva always בּ 12 # bet with dagesh always בֿ 1236 # bet with rafe always דּ 5-145 # dalet with dagesh always דְּ 5-145-3 # dalet with dagesh sheva always הּ 125 # hey with dagesh always וֹ 246 # holam-vav always וּ 136 # shuruq always יּ 5-245 # Yod with dagesh always יְּ 5-245-3 # Yod with dagesh sheva always כּ 13 # kaf with dagesh always כְּ 13-3 # kaf with dagesh sheva always לּ 5-123 # lamed with dagesh always לְּ 5-123-3 # lamed with dagesh sheva always מּ 5-134 # mem with dagesh always מְּ 5-134-3 # mem with dagesh sheva always נּ 5-1345 # nun with dagesh always נְּ 5-1345-3 # nun with dagesh sheva always פּ 1234 # pe with dagesh always פְּ 1234-3 # pe with dagesh sheva always פֿ 124 # Pe with rafe always קּ 5-12345 # qof with dagesh always קְּ 5-12345-3 # qof with dagesh sheva always שְׁ 146-3 # Shin with dot and sheva always שְׂ 156-3 # Sin sheva always שׁ 146 # shin with dot always שׂ 156 # sin always ת 1456 # tav always תּ 1256 # tav with dagesh always תְּ 1256-3 # tav with dagesh sheva always בּ 12 # Bet with dagesh always בְּ 12-3 # Bet with dagesh sheva always כּ 13 # KAF with dagesh always כְּ 13-3 # KAF with dagesh sheva always תּ 1256 # tav with daggesh always תְּ 1256-3 # tav with daggesh sheva # letter op code characters letter ֒ 46-234 # segol - isolated letter ֓ 46-146 # shalshelet letter ֔ 2 # zaqef qatan letter ֕ 46-1245 # zaqef gadol letter ֖ 46-2345 # tipeha letter ֗ 46-1235 # revia letter ֘ 46-145 # zarqa letter ֙ 46-34 # pashta letter ֚ 46-245 # yetiv letter ֛ 46-1236 # tevir letter ֜ 46-1 # geresh letter ֝ 46-16 # geresh muqdam letter ֞ 46-12 # gershayim letter ֟ 46-1345 # qarney para letter ֠ 46-2356 # telisha gedola letter ֡ 46-236 # pazer letter ֢ 46-23 # atnah hafukh letter ֣ 46-136 # munah letter ֤ 46-125 # mahapakh letter ֥ 46-134 # merkha letter ֦ 46-13 # merkha kefula letter ֧ 46-145 # darga letter ֨ 46-1234 # qadma letter ֩ 46-12345 # telisha qetana letter ֪ 46-13456 # yerah ben yomo letter ֫ 46-135 # ole letter ֬ 46-24 # iluy letter ֭ 46-24 # dehi letter ֮ 46-1356 # zinor letter ֯ 456-134 # masora circle letter ְ 3 # sheva letter ֱ 26 # hataf segol letter ֲ 25 # hataf patah letter ֳ 345 # hataf qamats letter ִ 24 # hiriq letter ֵ 34 # tsere letter ֶ 15 # segol letter ַ 14 # patah letter ָ 126 # qamats letter ֹ 456-246 # holam Malay letter ֺ 135 # holam haser letter ֻ 346 # qubuts letter ּ 5 # dagesh letter ֽ 4 # meteg letter ֿ 45 # rafe letter ׁ 456-4 # shin dot letter ׂ 456-45 # sin dot letter ׄ 456-5 # upper dot letter ׅ 456-56 # lower dot letter ׆ 456-1345 # nun hafukha letter ׇ 126 # qamats qatan letter א 1 # alef letter ב 1236 # bet letter ג 1245 # gimel letter ד 145 # dalet letter ה 125 # hey letter ו 2456 # vav letter ז 1356 # zayin letter ח 1346 # het letter ט 2345 # tet letter י 245 # yod letter ך 16 # final kaf letter כ 16 # kaf letter ל 123 # lamed letter ם 134 # final mem letter מ 134 # mem letter ן 1345 # final nun letter נ 1345 # nun letter ס 234 # samekh letter ע 1246 # ayin letter ף 124 # final pe letter פ 124 # Pe letter ץ 2346 # final tsadi letter צ 2346 # tsadi letter ק 12345 # qof letter ר 1235 # resh letter ש 146 # Shin letter װ 2456-2456 # double vav letter ױ 2456-245 # vav yod letter ײ 245-245 # double yod letter ׳ 3 # geresh letter ײַ 245-245-14 # Double Yod with patah # punctuation op code characters punctuation ֑ 23 # atnokta punctuation ־ 36 # maqaf punctuation ׀ 456 # paseq punctuation ׃ 256 # sof pasuq punctuation ״ 356 # gershayim # sign op code characters sign ✔ 12356 # Check Mark Distinguishes Same kind of Varient sign ✕ 1235 # Mark beginning of Replacement sign ✖ 2456 # Mark Ends of Replacement sign ✗ 24 # Mark for Insertion sign ✘ 35 # Marks Varients with in Apparatus sign ✙ 23456 # Marks end of Replaced text sign ❁ 123-1346-1346 # Reference to LXX sign ❍ 135 # Marks Omitted Word sign ❏ 135-3 # Marks End of Omited word sign ❐ 1235 # Marks Replaced Word sign ❑ 12345 # Mark that Distinguishes between Varient sign ❘ 1256 # Mark that separates variations sign ❙ 2345 # Mark that indicates Alternative readings sign ❚ 14 # Mark indicates varrnt sign ❥ 345 # Marks distinguishes between varient sign ❦ 126 # Marks beginning of transposition sign ❧ 156 # Check Marks end of transposition # Include additional braille tables include spaces.uti include litdigits6Dots.uti include latinLetterDef6Dots.uti include en-ueb-chardefs.uti
