How to braille “Circles P and Q”?

[Chris Clemens]

In geometry book, circles are represented by placing the letter "s" on the inside of a circle. How should it be brailled?

I brailled it as follows: (each cell is enclosed in a parentheses)

(dots 1-2-4-6)(dot 1-4)(dot 2-3-4) (dot 6)(dot 1-2-3-4) (dot 1-2-3-4-6) (dot 5-6)(dot 1)(dot 1-2-3-4-5)

questions:
1. following "Plural of a Sign of Shape", I braille "P" without ELI. is this correct?
2. I braille contracted "and", is this correct?
3. I put ELI in front of "Q", is this correct?

I really need to see what the print looks like. Could you attach a picture?

I apologize for the delay in answering. The answer to your questions is "yes". The P does not need a letter indicator because it immediately follows the plural of a sign of shape. The Q needs a letter indicator because it is a single letter standing alone. Nothing in the expression prohibits the use of the "and" contraction.
