Punjabi Braille is the braille alphabet used in India for Punjabi . It is one of the Bharati braille alphabets, and largely conforms to the letter values of the other Bharati alphabets. [1]
Alphabet
The alphabet is as follows: Vowel letters are used rather than diacritics, and they occur after consonants in their spoken order. [2] For orthographic conventions, see Bharati Braille .

Pointing
The Bharati point, ⠐ , is only used to derive one consonant, ਗ਼ ġa /ɣə/ , from the base consonant letter ਗ ga /ɡə/ . This system also operates in Hindi Braille and Indian Urdu Braille , but the Punjabi Braille alphabet is closer to Indian Urdu, as all other consonants that are pointed in print, such as ਖ਼ xa , are rendered with dedicated letters in braille based on international values . The six pointed letters in the Gurmukhi script have the following equivalents in braille:
Gurmukhi | ਖ਼ | ਗ਼ | ਜ਼ | ਫ਼ | ਲ਼ | ਸ਼ |
