Hello Joe and Alex,
The correct braille rule is as follows: The "was" is supposed to be contracted even though it is presented after a capital sign. However, if "was" had a quotation mark before it or any punctuation after it, then the word is spelled out without any contraction. I hope this helps. All the best,
Nafisah.

Hi, Every One,

What is the correct Braille rule as it applies to this sentence:

Was she here?

When that sentence is translated from ASCII, it comes out with:

dot six lower j

I thought that it should be a capital w.

If the former is correct, so be it. If the latter is right, we have a translation error which needs to be reported to GW.

Thank you.  I look forward to your thoughts.

Joe G.
