3.8.4 Identifying Indistinctly Spoken Characters.
When you read a character by pressing READ with COMMA, it is sometimes difficult to
distinguish between letters that sound similar. If you press READ with COMMA, twice, when you
are using text or Braille Codes, other than UEB, KeySoft expands the current character into its
"military call sign", if the character is alphabetical, for example A - Alpha, B - Bravo, etc.
When you are using UEB, the second press of READ with COMMA, speaks the Braille context of
the symbol under the cursor. For example, if the cursor is on dot 1-5 in the sequence 4-5, 3-4, 1-5,
the "e acute" will be spoken on the second press. A third press will give the military call-sign.
3.8.5 Spelling Out a Word.
If you press READ with K twice, KeySoft spells the current word.
In a Braille document three presses of READ with K causes KeySoft to spell a translated version of
the word. If the word in question contains one or more grade 2 contractions, those contractions are
expanded to their equivalent characters and the expanded word is spelt out. For example, the word
"time" is spelled as "dot 5 T" on the second press but "t i m e" on the third press.
