Hawaiian Braille

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

supplemented by an additional letter to mark long vowels:

(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.
