I've found with my kids that now that they know morse, I can use it as a game / learning tool when they're doing their homework - when learning to spell etc, I will give hints to the spelling if I see them struggling by tapping on the table in morse. It is like unlocking an extra dimension in thinking for them.
If you happen to be an amateur radio operator (Ham) and have children or Grandchildren, teaching them the Morse Code will increase their ability to learn other tasks. Many 8 or 9 year olds can grasp the code and actually get a ham license. Knowing the code is not necessary for getting a license now but is still used since it is dependable communications.
haha i think i'll use this opportunity to finally learn the morse code, i love learning new languages and new scripts, so why not this? now i can just say the typical /sausages oreo sausages/, but i'll do my best
oh and sign language... i remember i used to chat with my sister using this alphabet in front of our parents when we were 7 and 9 years old or so. it was great fun to have this kind of "secret language", but i completely forgot it. so, lets relearn it!
I have been studying code for a few months off and on and have come to the point where i keep mixing some and guessing at some. I can pick out about 19-20 letters of the alphabet on a regular basis and your little song showed me a few sound a-likes that will help me! I will listen to this a few hundred times and then test myself with my program i have! I use my voice software to dictate the letters to my computer as their said! It helps me to say it instead of writing! Thanks a lot!!! Joe
This was an experiment that I'd wanted to do for a while now, but had never got around to doing.
I'm glad I did it though - my kids - 5 and 4 were there when I recorded it, and now about a month or so afterwards, they sing the song when they're playing, having fun with the different images, signs and rhythms etc. If you 'beep' any letter to them, they'll sing the part of the song (and the next few letters) with the sign. I think I'm on to something here :)
Im sure your kids will learn Morse code and not even know. My eight-year-old daughter is sort of interested in it. I offer to practice with her, but sometimes the girly things take priority. I will be there when she is ready. Honestly, sir. I never expected a reply from you. Someone who is as busy as yourself normally wouldn't. I appreciate the reply. You're one of the few "famous people" that don't have their head in the clouds. it is wonderful that you remember where you came from.Thank You
That's actually what's been happening. I don't think they realise that they've learned morse. They all think it's a big game to be able to work out what part of the song I'm tapping. I guess that's the kind of fun even adults need to create when they're learning a new language. Learning by stealth!
It's always great to have other people who love languages / morse.. actually ANYTHING share their opinions. I should be thanking YOU :)
Very impressive, man! I'm a morse operator for the U.S. Navy, actually. It's too bad my training wasn't nearly as interesting or creative as this video. Favorited.
Stuart, I wonder if you take notes when reading a dictionary? Or just those 5,000 words you learn when studying a new language pop up to your memory effotlessly, after 1 reading only?
I do both. I don't think there's anything magic about what I do. I just create multiple very vivid, loud and meaningful associations. Sometimes writing them down in blocks of 10 helps me - The delineation acts as another reference / memory peg when recalling. Sometimes things just stick, sometimes I have to go back and reinforce things that had slipped.I create associations not only with the meanings, but also with other words / sounds in other languages.. the more the merrier.
A labour of love :) ... I wanted to strike while the thoughts were still hot in my head. I had all the tools sitting here so I thought - what the heck!

Is there any rule applied here for codes to contain meanings?

The rule? You mean other than each letter having a dot-dash combination?

Out of curiosity - when you first started, what's the standard way that morse is taught in the Navy?
