How BRAILLE Works

[@likeakittie]

I was watching a hilarious KZbin video and now I am learning Braille. The surprising part is that I am actually putting my effort in learning it.

[@sallyibrahim9135]

Same here lol xD I'm going to the library tomorrow for some braille bokks lol

[@assassinpanda9958]

Phyu Phyu Aung I was watching video games and that led to binary, morse, tap code and finally braille

[@desynonsochecognomefintome4806]

Jacob Clement Why? you can lose your view also if you aren't born blind

[@jacobclement7707]

Desirè Mileo That's true but then you can learn it on your own time. Why waster valuable teaching team with brail when you could be learning people skills and math

[@ShilohPark]

Same. Reading with your fingers and not your eyes is hard. Proud for the blind tho.

[@stapuft]

Why is it so needlessly complicated? Feeling the plain letters seems much easier...

[@ogelbeh]

@@stapuft this is more effecient for blind people due to its simplicity. They can easily slide their finger across the surface without wasting time feeling for a tail to differentiate an O from Q. People who are born blind also wouldn't know the letter shapes we use and the dots would be much simpler to learn because each letter follows the same format rather than an obscure squiggle shape.

[@IkarusFlight]

I always wanted to learn it. To be able to pretend to speak freely, while I read something under the desk.

[@HaloPwNnCrab]

Have you tried speaking and focusing on a conversation while reading normally? It's pretty damn hard and if you can't do that, it's not likely you can do it with braille either. You will always either be neglecting the convo or the book

[@IkarusFlight]

Hippy Lemonz I don't talk about conversations. I talk about speeches.

[@HaloPwNnCrab]

Ted Logan Haha, I'm not sure you'd be a very engaging speaker. I can only imagine that you'd be speaking and then slowly trail off into silence, then start speaking again and the cycle repeats. All while the audience is wondering what the fuck is going on 😂
