THE BRAILLE ALPHABET

• Braille is a system of raised dots that can be read with the fingers by people who are blind or who have low vision. 

• Braille is not a language. Rather, it is a code by which many languages—such as English, Spanish, Arabic, Chinese, and dozens of others—may be written and read.

• Braille symbols are formed within units of space known as braille cells.

• A full braille cell consists of six raised dots arranged in two parallel rows each having three dots.

• The dot positions are identified by numbers from one through six. Sixty-four combinations are possible using one or more of these six dots.

• A single cell can be used to represent an alphabet letter, number, punctuation mark, or even a whole word.
