Most of the print letters with accents are derived in Lithuanian braille by adding a dot 6 to the base letter (cf. Czech Braille, Esperanto Braille). The dotted vowels are created through inversion. Ū uses the international convention for a second u. Ž is unusual, but perhaps forms a set with s, š, z (cf. Hungarian Braille).
