Remembering V
- It sounds like di-di-di-dah. Say it out loud as you listen, and learn the rhythm rather than counting dots and dashes.
- V has 4 signals: 3 dots and 1 dash. It takes 9 units of time to send, where a dot is one unit.
- V is roughly the 21th most common letter in English. Morse code gives the shortest codes to the commonest letters, which is why rarer letters like V are longer.
- Read it backwards and you get B (-...).
