How to read this

  • In Morse a dot is one unit and a dash three. The commoner the letter, the shorter the code — E is a single dot.
  • Each NATO word starts with its own letter. It is for saying a letter clearly over the radio.
  • A braille cell has six dot positions, so there are sixty-four of them. The empty one is the space between words.
  • Digits in braille reuse the cells of a–j; a number sign in front tells them apart.
