One glance at your channel I thought you were super famous. Thanks for teaching me this I'd like to communicate with my grandpa this way and confuse him
I used the Google version and i learned the entire alphabet in a hour! I highly recommend it, you start off with the word "EAT" and when you get familiar, a new letter gets introduced, for example "MEAT". I can't believe it, i am fluent in morse.
You just taught me how to learn morse code by writing all the alphabet letters, their codes and use the codes in a sample sentence. Thank you for this.
Thank you SO much for this! I've wanted to learn Morse code, and as I just acquired my Amateur Extra ham radio license I figured I would give it a go, but I dreaded the process. An hour after watching your video, having never previously used Morse code, I have most of the alphabet down and am tapping out sentences (albeit slowly). GREAT method, I'm going to recommend this to everyone I can!
This method works best for "written" Morse (aka Continuous Wave/CW for short) where you can copy slower, vs _hearing_ or seeing CW which happens a _LOT_ faster! This method focuses your mind on the written/visual aspect, and more on counting individual dits and dahs of CW "dit..." "dah..." "dit..." vs hearing _whole letters_ as one musical sound, like "di-dah-dit" (R) needed for faster copying... That only happens by _hearing_ whole letters.
Maybe to add to this the moste basic rules of using morse code: Make a short pause between letters (people often forget this when doing SOS, it is "... --- ..." and not "...---..."), and a longer pause between words. To undo the last word after you made a mistake (kind of a backspace), use eight dots (........). If you forget the pauses, the receiver will have a hard time figuring out where new letters or new words start.
This is a nice strategy for memorizing the codes, amongst others. When I did my license, the school had another very nice method for quickly memorizing codes. However, learning morse is not about being able to just memorize the codes. It is about using them fast and without thinking. For this, you'll need many hours of practice, both sending and receiving morse codes. There's no way around it. How much time did you need in school not only to memorize the letters of the alphabet, but to fluently read and write? Another example: How difficult is it to memorize all the notes of a scale and the correspondig key on a piano? Can be done in 5 minutes. But how long does it take to actually play the piano from the music sheet, in a way that people would be willing to listen without being paid for it?
@@kermitthefrog4830 Not doing it by the common alphabet. We learned groups of related letters/digits. This way you don't have to remember the according morse codes at all. Just remember the groups. For example, how hard is it to remember "EISH5"? . E .. I ... S .... H ..... 5 Or "TMOCH0": - T -- M --- O (the letter "o") ---- CH ----- 0 (zero) Or another example: "AUV4" .- A ..- U ...- V ....- 4 The same way you remember "NDB6" and so on. It's quite easy to do. I did the course more than 30 years ago, and after making the license never used it again. And I remember the groups until today.
as someone with selective mutism and has a hard time talking to 911 due to it, morse code really helps. a dot is a short whistle, a line is a long whistle and a pause is about two-three seconds long with no whistle!
Mnemonics are the best for memorizing things!!! Youre taking info from your short term memory and implanting it into your long term memory because you have a mental picture of what youre trying to memorize
it’s weird how it’s like the edge of the musical rhythm, memorize the rhythms become a new kind of musical word machine man. it’s just amazing thinking of when they tell us about Morse code in elementary school and they don’t relate it to a musical rhythm and so the idea that a human could do it is just impossible and you just think it must be the most tedious thing that could ever be when it just aint so
heyy, big thanks for making this video. this sure is more helpful than the other videos i found. i did memorize the morse code in just a few minutes (i thought it would take me weeks). this is all thanks to you!!
Ayyy I'm here for a rewatch! Ugh the host, the editing, the soundtrack... This video is immaculate! Fun fact this is the technique contestants use in number memorization competitions!
Bro...... You are super cool.... I really understood it very well and I am excited to practice all this and see how much am into this morse code.. ..hope I learn it and teach my friends if possible...... Thank you so much bro.... ❤❤❤
I learned how to memorize 25 random words of "things" and can recall them in order forward and backward. You can pick a number and I can recall the object.... give me the object and I can tell you what number it is. Your process makes learning the Morse Code so simple.... speed, not so much. lol. I learned and used the Code in Boy Cubs, Boy Scouts, and Army Cadets.... got a new badge...haha. I'm 71 and have never used it, but the world is getting pretty black, I should practice a bit. Thank you. I liked and subbed.
Thank you so much dude As a normal weird person i like learning about weird and (kinda) useless stuff Like solving a rubiks cube and ofc now morse code Again thank you so much
Wow! that was soo easy to learn, I exually started with the three diagram video which I didn't even finish because I was soo confused. So thanks a lot man, you really helped me🙏
Thanks for this video, I keep forgetting how useful mnemonics are even though they're the reason I've been able to memorize so many words in the languages I'm learning..... you can even use mnemonics just to remember everyday things you want to keep in mind... mnemonics are super underrated, they're like memory hacks. All it takes is to take a minute or two (the more you think abt it the better) to think of something silly and related to what you want to remember and then it's so much harder to forget!
I have a friend in my coding class and he self harms, he got checked out and hasn’t showed up to school lately. He doesn’t like talking around people about it, he talks about it with me tho- we can’t go anywhere private tho or pass notes so I’m gonna learn Morde code to ask if he’s ok- thank you
Interesting method for learning the patterns. But if you ever want to be able to copy morse code by ear at a reasonable speed, you need to train the sound of each sign and word. Thinking of dots and dashes is not fast enough. This was the best advice I got when starting to learn CW. Although a bit too late. Years later, I am still not as good in copying the few signs I learned using the visual method. The rest and even short words are more or less decoded automatically now. Short: Don´t learn dots and dashes because it does more harm than good.
This is very cool. Reminds me of "Word Association" that my mom tried to teach me when I was a kid. I'll never forget the capitol of Kansas because she would stick her big toe in my face, so I wouldn't forget it on the test at school :-) Great video.
holy crap. it took me 20 minutes but now i can recite the morse code alphabet out loud and also can write full sentences and annoy my friends. - .... .- -. -.- / -.- - - - - ..-
Best video, it's useful. Thanks for uploading such nice and understandable video 🙏. Can you please make a video of how to write a sentence using Morse. code
I am from Sri Lanka.. 🇱🇰 This is very important for us to find the secret codes given by Charitha Attalage who is a great artist who mixes music with our future technology... 🔥❤🇱🇰
