Definitions

  1. transcribe in braille

Word origin

Borrowed from French braille, named after French educator Louis Braille (1809–1852). The /eɪl/ seems to reflect a spelling pronunciation; French has /aj/ instead.

Used in a sentence

  • Another difficulty which causes literature in braille to remain scarce is the cumbersomeness of the process of producing braille books.
  • I played back my recorded notes and brailled them.
  • the sponsorship statement on respondent's brailled volumes [...] He admittedly had no knowledge of just how respondent's book [...] came to be brailled
