Answer
Braille code has an alphabet, as well as words and phrases, which are all represented by series of raised dots. It is commonly used as a method for blind people to read. By feeling with their fingers, they can 'read' special print of raised dots which form symbols. They must attend a special school to learn what the symbols mean.
Braille is used by the visually impaired or blind. It is used by feeling raised dots that make up a letter. All letters and words fit into a six holed space called a cell. Each individual cell represents a different letter or word. In type one (or grade one) braille, only letters and punctuations are included. In type two (or grade two) braille contractions are used to make whole words. That is because braille is much larger than print and it saves much space.
