Learning Tips

Dots and Dashes

  • • Dot (dit) = short sound/signal
  • - Dash (dah) = long sound/signal (3x longer than dot)
  • Space between elements of same letter = 1 unit
  • Space between letters = 3 units
  • Space between words = 7 units

Memory Techniques

  • Start with common letters: E (•), T (-), A (•-), I (••)
  • Learn the phonetic sounds (dit-dah patterns)
  • Practice with your name first
  • Use mnemonics for difficult letters
  • Regular practice builds muscle memory
