A palindrome is a word that is spelled the same backwards and forwards like the

word racecar.  Forwards it's spelled R-A-C-E-C-A-R. Backwards it

is spelled R-A-C-E-C-A-R.  A palindrome. The word pulp is not a palindrome or is it?

No.  But kind of.  The title of this video might give you a little hint about

where I'm going with this.  Here's another one.  When I watched Jake's new episode of

which means Wow in Morse code. Morse code began in the

19th century when Samuel FB Morse a painter was commissioned to paint a

portrait of Marquis de Lafayette he began by painting a study just to kind

of get some of the details right but he never finished it because while he was

working on that study he received a letter from a messenger on horseback

telling him that his wife was sick.  He rushed to her side.  She was quite far

away but by the time he got there she was not only dead she had already been

buried.  Morse was so upset by how slow a message carried on a horse was that he

worked on faster electronic communication.  The Morse code he created

transmits letters using patterns of two kinds of signals: those of short duration

and those of long duration.  Here is Morse code in its modern form.  Pretty cool.  As

you can see a letter like V okay the letter V is three short duration signals

followed by one long duration signal. Learning Morse code can be a challenge

because the connection between the patterns of short and long duration

signals, dots and dashes or dits and dahs, doesn't quite make intuitive sense with

the order of the letters.  That's because Morse designed this system such that the

frequency at which a letter appears in the English language is inverse to approximately how

long it takes to send that message using Morse code. Learning Morse code is best

done in fact it's only truly done correctly by sending and receiving Morse

code messages.  There are links down in the description below where you can take

lessons and learn how to really get a sense of what each letter looks or

sounds like in Morse code but today I want to show you some mnemonics. Using

these works really well.  It won't make you fast in Morse code but it has helped

me remember what each letter is in Morse code.  Let's begin with this fantastic

flowchart looking thing. Here's how the chart works.  You start where it says

start.  A movement to the left represents a short duration signal, a dot.  Any

movement to the right represents a long duration signal, a dash.  So as you can see

we start with a short signal a dot we land on E and in fact that is exactly

what E is in Morse code. One more dot that is one more movement to the left

brings us to I so I is two dots and sure enough it is.  Three dots is s, four dots

is H and there you have it.  If I go all the way out dot dot dot for an S and

then put in a long signal well then I have to move from s to the right which

takes me to V and sure enough V is dot dot dot - V dot dot dot -  This way of

organizing Morse code is very cool looking but I mean using this to learn

Morse code just means a whole visual thing to have to remember.  Similar is a

visual mnemonic created by Robert baden-powell published in the Girl

Guides handbook back in 1918.  Here it is it's all the letters of the English

alphabet A to Z with dots and dashes incorporated into the shapes of the

letters.  As you can see E just has one little dot on it.  I don't find this that

helpful. I applaud the effort that went into it. You sort of have to read these

like you would read a book left to right and top to bottom except

not all of them. There's something better. Verbal mnemonics.  These are what really

helped me so let's get right into those. I have here on this legal pad the 26

letters of the English alphabet as well as a period and a comma.  The way this

mnemonic works is it associates with each letter a word or phrase that gives

you a clue as to the pattern of dots and dashes that represent that letter.  Every

word or phrase contains emphasized or stressed syllables and syllables that

aren't. Stressed syllables are dashes.  Unstressed syllables are dots.  You might

be able to come up with a system that works better for you but this one has

served me extremely well. Let's begin. The letter A. The letter A is a dot followed

by a dash: boop-boop.  Okay so to remember that think of a word

that starts with A, specifically the word apart.  Oh no everything fell apart. Apart.

Unstressed. Stressed.  The opposite would be apart but we don't pronounce it

apart.  We pronounce it apart.  So apart is A which is a-part: dot dash.  B is how I

remember B: boot to the head. Boot to the head. C is coca-cola coca-cola. D is

dockworker.  Dockworker.  E is just eh!  F is a little bit weird.  This really works for

me. I never seem to forget that F is associated with this phrase even though

the letter F isn't even in it. The phrase is this: get a haircut get a haircut.  G is

good gravy. H is hippity hop. I is I I.  J is let's jump jump jump. K is kangaroo. L

is to L with it. M is mm-hmm. N is navy.  O is one of us. P is a poopy

smell. Q is God save the Queen. R is rotation.  S is sí sí sí. T is

tall. U is underwear? V looks like the roman numeral five so think Beethoven's

fifth: duh duh duh duhhh.  W is a white whale. X is x marks the spot.

Y is a yellow yo-yo. And Z is a zinc zookeeper.  As for the full stop the

period and the comma piece of cake. Watch this. For a period you just think a stop

a stop a stop and for the comma I love this one:

comma it's a comma. Now these might seem a little bit silly or weird or possibly

confusing to you.  That's fine. Come up with your own.  All I'm saying is

that this system has stuck with me really well. I don't know why. Perhaps

because it's just so strange but I love knowing Morse code even at this just

kind of rudimentary level because Morse code is everywhere like in Hollywood on

the Capitol Records building.  The light at the top of the spire blinks a message

in Morse code every night.  :et's figure out what it is.  Hippity hop.

Alright now let's talk about pulp. Remember how I said that pulp was a

palindrome.  Well obviously pulp is not a palindrome

when you're using the letters of the English alphabet.  P-U-L-P.  P-L-U-P?  Plup?

I don't think so.  Alright well let's do Morse code.  We know that P is

dot dash dash dot.  A poopy smell.  Ok a poopy smell.

L is 2 L with it.  2 L with it.  And finally P is a poopy smell. A poopy smell.  Look at

this.  Pulp may not look like a palindrome in English letters but my goodness look

at it in Morse code. It is symmetric right down there through that Center dot

Pulp in Morse code is the same backwards and forwards.  In 2010
