morse code is a method of communication using dots and dashes to represent letters of the alphabet and numbers.

ie.. ..-.. ... --. --. ...---...

Whatever method you choose to go with, put down the pencil or the pen. It is a bad habit (that I picked up) when learning morse code and it is hard to get away from. Try to copy with just your ears, and like you are listening to a conversation. Always listen to a faster speed than what you are trying to achieve, and do a lot of on the air listening for a variety of sending styles.

Try the following website:

www.learnmorsecode.com

It takes you from the beginning to where you

can copy at 5 wpm.

Yes, you can speak Morse code by whistling

or speaking the sounds.

and it does become like a language when you

know it well enough.

Eventually, you begin to recognize certain

combinations of sounds as words.

For example, - ,,,, . = t + h + e = the,

but when sent fast I can recognize the whole word.

I think Morse code is a valuable tool when

one can't speak normally, especially

when one is in the hospital.

Good luck in your study of Morse code!

The Morse Code contains dots and dashes and nothing else. No dots and dashes, no Morse. Radiotelephony made it obsolete years ago.



Edit- Excuse me, I must have acquired my misinformation operating Benghazi Radio and Aden Radio for Cable and Wireless 55 years ago. The spoken form is Dahs and dits. But why would you bother?
