“sorry” in braille

Grade 1 — letter by letter

Grade 2 — contracted

Why Grade 2 changes nothing here

Grade 2 replaces common letter groups and whole words with single cells, but none of the words in “sorry” contain a group that has one. It stays 5 cells in both grades, which is unusual — most English phrases lose at least one cell. The contraction list shows which groups do have their own cell.

Letter by letter

Before you emboss it

This phrase is the same in both grades, so there is no decision to make here. Check the cell count against your material before committing to anything permanent.

The same thing, in the other codes

Each of these is what someone says in that language at the same moment — not a translation of the English, but the phrase that language's own list already carried. The cells come from each code's own engine.
