How To Get Started With Learning Morse Code

By Elinor Tran


Learning Morse Code is full of thrill and excitement. It requires a lot of skills an practice. With these steps, you will eventually be using a different language like a pro.

The first approach should start by a careful listening of slow recordings. You will be hearing a combination of beeps. Dahs and dits are long and short beeps. A short pause separates each letter equivalent while a three time longer break separates each word.

You also need to refer to the alphabet of this unique language. At first you can use a basic chart as a beginner. Eventually you can turn to the more advanced one which includes punctuations, abbreviated phrases and other signs. The beep that you will be hearing should be matched up with the letters in the alphabet.

You can then proceed to practicing the translation of basic and simple words and sentences. If you wish, try writing them down and saying them out loud. Get a children's book and transmit the story as a sort of practice. Eventually, you will get used to the transcriptions of the codifications.

The simple letters should be familiarized first so that you will not have difficulty memorizing. Most of these simple letters are also the common ones. By doing this, you can learn a lot for just a short time. You can then proceed with studying the rare and difficult ones. Making associations will also help you retain the combinations better.

In order to grasp actively this new language, you have to enjoy it. Maybe your friends might want to learn it to. Play a game with them using this in a blinking scheme. Perhaps you might also want to keep your secret notes incomprehensible, use this unique language.

Learning Morse Code is also a challenging process. But it could be fun and exciting. Never stop practicing and soon you have already mastered it.
