Hawaiian Braille

Hawaiian Braille is the braille alphabet of the Hawaiian language. It is a subset of the basic braille alphabet,


 * {| class=wikitable


 * - align=center
 * - align=center
 * a||e||h||i||k||l||m||n||o||p||u||w
 * }
 * }

supplemented by an additional letter to mark long vowels:


 * {| class=wikitable


 * - align=center
 * - align=center
 * ā||ē||ī||ō||ū
 * }
 * }

(Māori Braille uses the same convention for long vowels.)

Unlike print Hawaiian, which has a special letter ʻokina for the glottal stop, Hawaiian Braille uses the apostrophe, which behaves as punctuation rather than as a consonant:


 * āina
 * Āina

That is, the order to write Ā is apostrophe, cap sign, length sign, A.

Punctuation is as in English Braille.
