    The document provides an mnemonic technique for learning Morse code by associating words with each character. The words begin with the same letter as the character and use tall or capital letters to represent dashes and short letters to represent dots. Visualizing the word helps recall the Morse code pattern for that character. Common punctuation and symbols can also be remembered using similar mnemonics or phrases. Numbers are represented using a counting pattern with dots and dashes.

    As an aid to learning Morse code, this technique has you associate a word with each character. For a letter in
    the alphabet, the associated word will usually begin with the same letter. In that word, tall letters (those
    descending below the baseline or ascending above the mean line) and capital letters represent dashes, while
    short letters (aceimnorsuvwxz) represent dots. To recall the Morse code for a character, try to visualize the
    word and hence a part of the processing will be performed in your minds eye (that is, using your visual cortex).

    For 1 through 5, count “1 2 3 4 5” and uses dots until you get to the number you want; use dashes thereafter.
    For 6 through 9, count “6 7 8 9 10” and use dashes until you get to the number your want; use dots thereafter.
    Treat 0 as “10” in this pattern.
