Punctuation{{one source|date=January 2014}}Serbian and Croatian Braille differ in quotation marks, brackets, and in the period/full stop vs. apostrophe.[1] There is less punctuation reported for Slovene and Macedonian Braille, but what there is matches Serbian conventions. Blank cells in the tables are unattested. Single punctuation: Print | , | .[1] | ? | ! | '[1] | ; | : | * | - | _ | / | & | § ¶ |

The superscript is reported for Croatian Braille; in Serbian Braille, {{bc|34}} is used for the virgule /. In Slovene Braille, the emphasis (bold/italic) marker {{bc|456}} is reported to be an abbreviation sign. References1. ^1 2 3 4 The Croatian apostrophe {{bc|dd}} is unusual by international standards, and it is possible the period and apostrophe were swapped in a copy error by Unesco (2013) and copied from them to other sources. Croatian Wikipedia gives {{bc|dd}} for the period and {{bc|gg}} for parentheses, both agreeing with Serbian Braille.
