Unknown symbol

I'm going to try to link you to my question, which I originally posted in the UEB forum. Let's see if this works!

Unknown symbol - National Braille Association

[Patrick Janson]

Good Morning,

I asked around a bit and no one has come across this symbols. One committee member thinks it is a print error!

The suggestion I was given to pass along was:

If the transcriber uses a transcriber-defined symbol because they can't just substitute an arrow and "fix" the print error, I believe it should be listed on the Special Symbols page (or in a transcriber's note in the body if the mystery symbol only occurs on that page) something like:

⠨⠿⠹  First transcriber-defined symbol, used to indicate a spelling change in stem-changing verbs

Write back if you were given other interesting suggestions!

Hi Patrick,

I've been looking through the rest of the book and I also now believe it's a print error. I think I will put an arrow in place of the weird symbol and add a TN at the location mentioning what I did.

Thank you!
