The invention provides a method and a system for blind people to read Chinese characters, and relates to the technical field of natural language processing and the technical field of disabled-oriented human-computer interaction. The method comprises the following steps: obtaining a Chinese language text, carrying out a word segmentation operation on the Chinese language text to generate a Chinese character string, converting each word in the Chinese character string into corresponding Pinyin by referring to part-of-speech tagging obtained by word segmentation through a pronouncing dictionary, a polyphone dictionary and word frequency information, and connecting the Pinyin into a Pinyin string; looking up a Pinyin and blind character contrast dictionary, converting the Pinyin string into a blind character string, carrying out braille word segmentation on the blind character string through a word segmentation model to generate initial braille segmentation words, fusing the Chinese character string with the initial braille segmentation words to generate new braille segmentation words, and regulating the new braille segmentation words according to a braille segmentation word ligature rule; and carrying out braille tone marking on the new braille segmentation words regulated according to the braille segmentation word ligature rule to generate final braille segmentation words, and displaying the final braille segmentation words.
