Arabic Braille is the\u00a0braille\u00a0alphabet for the\u00a0Arabic language. A unified Arabic Braille code was adopted in the 1950s as part of the move toward\u00a0international braille.\u00a0The Conference of Developing and Unifying Arabic Braille Characters met in Saudi Arabia in October 2002. There has been confirmation from several countries that they are using this unified braille code, and other countries are not.<\/p>\n

The primary language transcribed:<\/strong> Algeria, Bahrain, Egypt, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Libya, Mauritania, Morocco, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Tunisia, United Arab Emirates, Yemen. \u00a0Other\u00a0Arabic-based alphabets\u00a0have braille systems similar to Arabic Braille, such as\u00a0Urdu\u00a0and\u00a0Persian\u00a0Braille, but differ in some letter and diacritic assignments.<\/p>\n

Arabic written text is read from right to left, but\u00a0Arabic Braille is read from left to right<\/strong>, following the international convention. Numbers are also left to right, as they do in printed Arabic.<\/p>\n

Letters<\/h2>\n

Although short-vowel letters are not diacritics in Arabic Braille, they are optional and generally omitted, just as in print Arabic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
