Dutch Braille

[clarification needed] In 1946, the Vlaams-Nederlandse Braille-commissie (Flemish–Netherlands Braille Committee) was founded to decide on a uniform braille alphabet for the Dutch language.

Netherland Braille assigns international y to the vowel ij.

[1] For letters with diacritics in foreign words, French Braille is used.

Where this conflicts with Dutch values (y/ij, ö/oe, ô/ch, û/sch), a dot-6 prefix is used to specify the French reading: ⠠⠽ y, ⠠⠱ û. Unesco (2013) presents a Dutch Braille alphabet that is identical to the French.

Unesco (2013) has the opposite assignments for parentheses and quotation marks, ⠦⠀⠴ and ⠶⠀⠶ respectively.
