Bharati braille

Bharati Braille is a way that blind people can read and write in India. You know how we can see letters on paper and understand what they say? Well, blind people usually can't do that because they can't see. So, Bharati Braille is like a secret code that they can read with their fingers.

Imagine a piece of paper with bumps on it. These bumps are actually raised dots that blind people can touch and feel with their fingers. Each group of dots represents a different letter, number or even punctuation marks like commas and periods. For example, the letter "A" is made up of one dot, while the letter "B" is made up of two dots, and so on.

Bharati Braille is special compared to other types of braille like English or French braille because it includes additional dots that represent the many characters in Indian languages, such as Hindi, Marathi, Kannada, and Tamil. This is important because these languages have many unique sounds that can't be represented using the standard 26 letters of the English alphabet.

Using Bharati Braille, blind people can read books, newspapers, and other materials that are printed in this format. They can also write in Bharati Braille using a special device called a braille writer. This device lets them press dots into paper to create written words that can be read by other blind people.

Thanks to Bharati Braille, blind people in India can enjoy literature, education and communicate with others using their own native languages.
