Hi Jack
Yes, Afrikaans and Dutch are much alike and mutually understandable to a =
large extent. Although I can't speak or write Dutch correctly, I =
understand it perfectly. A major difference between the two languages is =
that Dutch uses very few diacritics: only acute-e, as in the word =
=C3=A9=C3=A9n (meaning "one" as distinct from the word "een" meaning =
"a") and the e-umlaut as in Australi=C3=AB, whereas many diacritics are =
used in Afrikaans. most vowels in Afrikaans kan have acute accents, =
circumflexes and umlauts. Currently Dutch braille is only written in =
grade one, whereas in Afrikaans we use grade 2 which has over 180 =
contractions; the two braille systems are completely different, but when =
we braille Dutch books for use in South Africa, we print them using =
grade 2 Afrikaans braille.
Many Afrikaans and English speakers in South Africa speak a mixture of =
the two languages. A sentence like, "That was sommer a lekker braai" =
(meaning, "That was really a great barbecue") would be a quite common =
example. Young authors these days also write this way. I've recently =
read a book which was basically an Afrikaans book, but contained very =
many English words throughout. In fact, reviewers of the book said the =
book was written in "Englikaans". Up to a few years ago, if a book like =
that had to be brailled, a decision would first be made as to what the =
fundamental language of the book was. The book would then be written in =
the grade 2 code of that language, but the "foreign" words would be =
written in grade 1 with the rules of the main language relating to =
diacritics. In other words, if it was an English book containing many =
Afrikaans words, the general English dot 4 diacritic sign would be used =
in the embedded Afrikaans words and not the Afrikaans diacritic signs. =
That was the position until recently when it was decided to contract the =
"foreign" words with the contractions of the main language. In other =
kinds of publications where a book would be printed in, say, Afrikaans =
with extended portions in the other language, the other language would =
be indicated with the name of the language in transcriber's symbols, =
then would follow the other language written in its grade 2 and finally =
the switch back would be indicated by the name of the main language =
again in transcriber's symbols. Jack, you asked me for an example of =
such a text, and I have one that I have attached. Sorry it's taken so =
long, but it's been a bit of a mission getting a suitable one from our =
printers. It is quite a good one, though. It is basically an English =
document, but contains extended portions of Afrikaans, Zulu and Sotho. =
So, to sum up: we would use grade switching only in case of extended =
sections in another language which would then be brailled in that =
language's code. Embedded words or phrases in another language would =
simply be written in the code of the main language. Robert's example is =
much like many of our local publications, though, of course, different =
languages apply. When you have an isolated extract like Robert's =
example, it would be difficult to determine which is the main language =
of the text, but generally, looking at the document as a whole, it =
shouldn't be too much of a problem to make the decision. I have not yet =
seen a publication here in South Africa where one wasn't able to tell if =
it was mainly an Afrikaans or an English book.
I hope I've dealt with all your issues, but if there is still something =
that's not clear, please ask away.
Regards
Christo

Subject: Re: [UEB Linguistics] Diacritics and unified codes
Hi Khristo:
I am unclear about a couple of things. When you speak of diacritics in
Afrikaans, are you referring to accented letters that occur throughout
literary text. I have this naieve assumption that Afrikaans and Dutch =
have
a strong afinity, even though they must be clasified as separate =
languages,
and the braille for the two is radically different. I am afraid I am =
going
to have to translate the entire list into refreshable braille, to make
intelligent comments, especially with respect to Bill's rather well
thought-out guidelines but it seems to me that: given the context in =
which
they were written, there is nothing naieve about them, which refers to =
the
written language, a fossilized version of the spoken.
To understand the differences between Afrikaans and nglish usage, I'll =
have
to import some Afrikaans text into dbt. Unfortunately the entry for =
South
Africa in World Braille Usage, contains no symbol sets for any =
languages.
I would be interested in your comments about Robert's submission of a =
piece
of bilingual text. I think it will take a few years before this kind of
text becomes common place. I am sure there must be situations where
Afrikaans and English are spoken and perhaps written freehand in the =
same
document, and a reader of both languages would hardly need the highly
necessary code switches or the differences in the handling of =
Diacritics.
We must remember that bilingual braille texts have been co-existing side =
by
side for a long time.
To comment on Robert's text, the bilingual Spanish and English could be
handled in a number of ways.
First of all, there are three grades of Spanish braille unique to the
Spanish speaking community. Secondly the U.K and the U.S have very
different rules for handling Spanish text in English context. I =
wouldn't
consider that there is a base language for Robert's text, and a =
transcriber
would presumably adopt North American usage for Spanish text, but why =
would
a transcriber have to know the differences between the braille =
conventions
for the two languages, anyway. Maybe her first language is Cantonese. =
There
is a brilliant novel, reviewed by the New York times some years ago =
written
by someone who's first language was chinese, and who could hardly speak
English, but wrote in it with idiomatic brilliance. Your suggestions =
seem
good to me, as do Robert's and Bill's. Braille is too fluid a system to =
be
carved in stone, so my rule of thumb would be to use traditional =
practices
used for a long time, with minimal modifications to English based on the
principles we are in the process of developing, which If I understand =
you
aright is South Africa's mandate for handling UEB.
I hope the rand is more prevalent in Sotho than the dollar. What is the
symbol for Rand?
As braille nonprescriptive braille usage throughout the world is my =
primary
interest, and as a goal, I am trying to amass a corpus of electronic
codebooks, I would be greatly interested to find any digital codbooks
written in Afrikaans. Does the South African Braille authority have a
web-site, and are the guidelines for both English and Afrikaans braille
posted there.
Many thanks
Jack.

South
Africa is in order.
>
> 1. We do not regard Afrikaans braille or the codes of our other =
languages)
as an extention of the UEBC, but as separate unified codes based on and =
in
the spirit of the UEBC. Thus we will use the same punctuation and the =
same
grade 1 assignments.
>
> 2. We do not intend to tamper in any way with the UEBC. Thus, we would =
use
the UEBC assigned symbols for diacritics in English texts, even in the =
case
of embedded Afrikaans words that have diacritics. Diacritics are fairly =
rare
in English material, so we are quite happy to live with the three cell
assignments in English. That means there will be no assignment that =
would
conflict, for example, with the contraction for ence as Bill seems to =
have
misunderstood.
>
> 3. However, the situation is different in Afrikaans, Sotho and Venda. =
In
Afrikaans we have been using dots 4-5 for the circumflex, dots 5-6 for =
the
umlaut and dot 4 for both acute and grave accent. Obviously we cannot =
use
these in a unified code based on the UEBC, as they are prefixes. In
languages that use many diacritics (like Afrikaans) the UEBC's three =
cell
assignments would simply be way too cumbersome and we would never be =
able to
sell a unified code. The solution we came up with, was to assign a group =
of
combinations starting with dots 4-5, dots 5-6 and dot 4 followed by the
letter having the relevant diacritic mark in print as "contractions" for =
the
longer UEBC assignments. We would only use these conbinations for the =
fixed
list of characters. We will not "contract" letters with grave accent, =
but
use the UEBC assigned symbol whenever such a letter is encountered. The
decision makers for Afrikaans braille have decided to take this approach
only in Afrikaans braille and the movers and shakers for African =
languages
have decided to adopt a similar approach in Sotho and Venda. I do not
consider this to be subterfuge of the UEBC in any way, neither would =
anyone
who has to read or write braille in a language where every other word =
has a
diacritic. A strong reason for this approach has been that, again in the
spirit of the UEBC, we wanted to tamper as little as possible with =
existing
codes and we found a very practical way to use most of the symbols =
already
well known by braille readers, without violating any of the principles =
of
the UEBC. The only difference now is that we can't, for example, call =
dots
4-5 a circumflex any longer, but we can say that, in Afrikaans, dots 4-5 =
e
is the contraction for the circumflex e.
>
> 4. Where a portion of, say, Afrikaans grade 2 text appears embedded in =
a
mainly English document, we would, of course, use the diacritic =
contractions
in accordance with the grade 2 rules for Afrikaans and not the UEBC
assignations. We would switch to Afrikaans and back again to the English
code by means of language switches, so our diacritic contractions will =
still
not cause any confusion or ambiguity.
>
> 5. Whenever one of these "contractions" conflicts with a UEBC assigned
symbol, the grade 1 indicator will be used to indicate the UEBC symbol. =
For
example, in Sotho they use an s-caron represented in braille by dot 4 s.
This would, of course, conflict with the UEBC dollar sign, but the Sotho
speakers feel they could live with a grade 1 indicator before the dollar
sign which, probably much to the horror of Americans, is a very rare
character in Sotho texts.
>
> 6. I must emphasise that our use of diacritic contractions will not =
cause
any ambiguity to either man or machine.
>
> 7. Here is the wording of the motion adopted at the last meeting of =
our
braille authority, Braille SA in respect of diacritics in a unified
Afrikaans braille code, similar motions having been adopted for Sotho =
and
Venda with reference to the diacritics used in those languages:

> =C3=AD (i-acute): dot 4 i
> =C3=B3 (o-acute): dot 4 o
> =C3=BA (u-acute): dot 4 u

dots

>
> 4. that any such contractions must only be used when they do not stand
alone, in other words, dots 5-6 o when standing alone would signify the
letter o (as distinct from the contraction for ook). In the rare case =
where
a letter with diacritic stands alone, the full UEBC symbol must be used.

> 1. I would like to comment on Christo's message of 15 March informing =
us
of some of South Africa's proposed actions, and to draw out some of the
wider implications of what he says.
>
> 2. His proposal to use UEB diacritics when only a few words of another
language occur in English context, but to use the switch system for =
longer
passages is completely in accordance with paragraphs 5 and 6 of my
guidelines.
>
> 3. He then explores the possibility of creating unified codes for =
other
South African languages, beginning with Afrikaans, which has more =
diacritics
than the others. This could be the start of a challenging project to =
develop
a family of unified braille codes for languages which interface =
regularly
with English. This raises the interesting question of how far the
assignments in such a family of language codes should be identical with
those of UEB. This topic is not covered in my guidelines, but it will =
need
to be addressed when they are revised. I would particularly welcome =
Joe's
reactions to what I am about to say, since he has developed translation
programs for a wide variety of languages. I shall be dealing solely with
signs beginning with categories a, b, c and f as defined in paragraph 3 =
of
my guidelines, that is to say, with alphabetic characters, diacritics,
punctuation and composition signs, and contractions.
>
> 4. In my view when constructing unified codes for languages other than
English, people are free to make assignments in these categories which =
are
different from those of UEB, subject to three constraints. The first is =
that
the unified code for another language must observe the distinction =
between
root and prefix characters which is fundamental to the structure of UEB.
This means that any character which is a root character in UEB must be a
root character in the other language, and the same goes for prefix
characters.
>
> 5. Secondly, since we are considering specifically the interface =
between
other languages and English, unified codes for those other languages =
would
have to retain the major English punctuation and composition signs.
Francophone countries in Africa which wanted to develop unified codes =
for
their languages, would presumably wish to retain French capitals, =
brackets
and quotation signs; and so for other language groups.
>
> 6. Thirdly ICEB does not have the power to legislate for the unified
encoding of languages from non-member countries. We can identify the =
changes
that would be needed to achieve a unified code, but only the users of =
the
language concerned can decide whether or not to adopt these changes, as =
the
Japanese did at Toronto last year. For languages which have an =
international
standard code, such as classical Greek as mentioned by Jack, some sort =
of
international consensus of users would be required to make changes. If =
the
WBU braille council gets off the ground, it will be an ideal mechanism =
for
resolving such problems.
>
> 7. The effect of these considerations on the African language signs =
which
Jean has asked us to look at appears to me to be as follows: dots 46, =
being
a prefix character, cannot be used to represent hooked k. It would be
theoretically possible (but in my view undesirable) to do so if this =
letter
was always followed by a blank cell; but I am sure that this is not the
case, and the sign will therefore have to be changed. The tonal marks =
dots
456, 45, and 4 are also prefix characters, and cannot be used as =
modifiers
in this way. There are two possible solutions. Either root characters =
must
be added making them into 2-cell signs (which would be cumbersome) or =
else
we must follow the pattern for showing capitals in UEB, and make the =
prefix
character followed by every possible root character which can carry a =
tonal
indication into separate 2-cell symbols. I imagine that this would =
usually
apply to vowels but I see no problem in modified n (dots 345) being =
toned.
Dots 256 for hooked d will have to be changed unless it only occurs at =
the
beginning of words, which is unlikely to be the case, because of =
confusion
with the stop or abbreviation point. Dots 23 for hooked b would be all
right, except at the end of a word, where it could be confused with the
semicolon. The fact that it forms the second element in typeform =
indicators
is not a problem, on the assumption that as an alphabetic character it =
could
not be preceded by a prefix. I also see no problem in assigning the same
braille character to represent different print characters making the =
same
sound in different languages. Even if there is a large overlap with UEB, =
we
should regard each language as having its own separate unified code, and
therefore it would in my view only be a violation of unified code =
principles
if different print symbols had the same braille representation in the =
same
language. The Maori macron dots 456 gives rise to the same difficulty as =
the
tonal marks in Hausa discussed above. I would recommend each vowel that =
can
carry the macron being treated as a separate 2-cell symbol, provided =
that
there is no ambiguity with other 2-cell symbols in Maori. It should be
remembered that the problem with such an ambiguity is not simply whether =
or
not a human reader can decipher the symbol correctly in a given context, =
but
the requirement that in a unified code there should be unambiguous =
automatic
translation in both directions between braille and print.
>
> 8. Finally we come to Christo's diacritics in Afrikaans. I do not
understand the reason for resorting to the subterfuge of regarding dots =
56 e
as a contraction for dots 45 25 e meaning e umlaut. Either we are still =
in
English braille, because there only a few words of Afrikaans, in which =
case
we must use the UEB sign to prevent the characters being mistranslated =
back
as "ence", or we have to switch into Afrikaans braille in which case we =
can
simply assign dots 56 e to mean e umlaut, on the assumption, as I said
before, that unified Afrikaans braille is a separate language code which =
has
a large overlap with UEB, and not simply an extension of UEB in which =
any
UEB assignment of characters remains valid. I would expect it to be =
possible
to design translation software to cope with this situation, and if I am
mistaken, Joe will doubtless tell us. There is just one outstanding =
issue:
in accordance with Committee 2 decisions I have provided in paragraph 10 =
of
my guidelines for the omission of code switch indicators "when the =
nature
and extent of the enclosed material can be clearly deduced from =
formatting
or other contextual considerations", and I go on to give examples which
would cover Christo's bilingual dictionary. I clearly wrote this with =
human
readers in mind, but the question has to be asked whether in automatic
translation from braille to print the code changes would be recognised.
>
> 9. The idea of a family of unified braille language codes should be
proceeded with slowly. It is not desirable at this stage to try to =
legislate
for every conceivable situation, but only for those which are of =
immediate
urgency. We have for example not begun to think of applying this idea to =
the
Indian subcontinent, where English coexists with a considerable number =
of
other diverse official languages using different scripts. the WBU =
Council
may eventually prove helpful here also.
