Taiwanese Braille is the braille script used in Taiwan for Taiwanese Mandarin (Guoyu).Not for Taiwanese Hokkien, which commonly goes by the name "Taiwanese" Although based marginally on international braille, most consonants have been reassigned;Only p m d n g c a e ê ü (from p m d n k j ä è dropped-e ü) approximate the French norm. Other letters have been reassigned so that the sets of letters in groups such as d t n l and g k h are similar in shape. also, like Chinese Braille, Taiwanese Braille is a semi-syllabary.
An example is, 國語點字記號ㄍㄨㄛˊㄩˇㄉㄧㄢˇㄗㄭˋㄐㄧˋㄏㄠˋguóyǔdiǎnzìjìhào

The braille letters for zhuyin/pinyin ㄍ g (), ㄘ c (), and ㄙ s () double for the alveolo-palatal consonants ㄐ j (), ㄑ q (), and ㄒ x ().[sic] One might expect ㄐ j () to pair with ㄗ z (), by analogy with the others. Compare here , where the character 學 xué is rendered "süé". Historically it could have been either. The principal behind the assignments seems to be that, of the historically appropriate pairs of letters g~z, k~c, and h~s, the letter with the fewer dots is used for j, q, x. The latter are followed by close front vowels, namely ㄧ i () and ㄩ ü (), so the distinction between g, c, s (or z, k, h) and j, q, x in zhuyin and pinyin is redundant.
Medial + rime Each medial + rime in zhuyin is written with a single letter in braille.
