Hmmm, again I may not be the best source for commercially produced UNO
cards, but I thought the color was represented by the last letter.  For
example 4 yellow would be "dy", draw 2 green would be "dbg" (draw 2 green)
and red skip would be "sr".  It wouldn't make sense for the first letter of
a wild draw four card to represent color as that card doesn't have a color;
the person using it chooses a color.  Again, I'm thinking the wild draw four
card contains the braille letters "wdd".

dots 1,3,4,6 I believe to be an orientation marks.
draw 4 - the first symbol is the color of the card, the next is a d,4

Does anyone know what the 3rd symbol is on the Braille Uno cards?  The
directions do not explain.  I've also quickly looked through my resources at
home to find it but most of my Braille resources are at work.  The last
Braille symbol I'm most wondering about is dots 1, 3, 4, and 6, which is
also the letter "X".  Any ideas?  I have a feeling I'm going to feel stupid
once someone points this one out.  It is only on the number cards not the
symbol cards like skip.  Are there directions that are perhaps missing? Also
wondering exactly how to read the Braille on the card that says draw 4
cards?  Much appreciated if you can share your expertise out there???
