现行盲文符号兼用歧义问题分析及对策

An Analysis of the Ambiguity of Dual-Meanings of Current Chinese Braille and Relevant Strategies

现行盲文符号兼用存在有歧义和无歧义两种情况。无歧义的符号兼用有效节约了盲符资源。有歧义符号兼用主要表现为六种类型,大部分都需要阅读时根据语境消解歧义,给盲文使用者和盲文信息处理带来了明显的障碍。全面认识现行盲文符号兼用歧义问题,加强定量和定性研究,通过修订标准明确规则,可以减少盲文方案自身的歧义性,提升表义准确性,有助于盲人学习文化并促进盲文的信息化。

The dual meanings of the present Chinese Braille symbols involve whether or not they are ambiguous. Dual-meanings without ambiguity help effectively save resources of Braille symbols,and dualmeanings with ambiguity mainly involve six types,most of which need to be disambiguated in context and bring about obvious obstacles to Braille users and Braille information. Therefore,a complete understanding of the ambiguity in the dual meanings of the present Braille symbols,strengthening the quantitative and qualitative research,and formulating relevant rules by revising the current standards help reduce the ambiguity,improve semantic accuracy,help visually-impaired people learn Braille effectively,and realize the informationization of Braille.
