Learn the Characters
Click on each card to hear the sound. A dot (·) is a short beep, a dash (−) is three times longer.
The letter D is dash-dot-dot (−··). Starts strong with a dash!
The letter K is dash-dot-dash (−·−). A symmetric pattern!
The letter G is dash-dash-dot (−−·). Two dashes then a dot.
The letter U is dot-dot-dash (··−). It ends with a dash.
💡 Pattern Tips
• K is symmetric: K (−·−) is a palindrome pattern.
• D starts with dash: D (−··) begins with a strong dash.
• G is heavy: G (−−·) has two dashes - it's "heavier".
• U ends with dash: U (··−) - two dots then one dash.
