Sets of 3 Words - Speed Racing - 28wpm

The Speed-Racing format is designed to help you improve your speed quickly. It starts fast and then incrementally slows down to a base-speed. The fastest speed is 1.5 times the slowest speed. You may find that you get the most use from this format by identifying the fastest speed you are proficient at and then using a Speed-Racing practice set where that is the slowest speed. You may need to adjust up or down a little to find the practice set that gives you the most efficient practice.

The final repeat is sent once at the maximum speed. As long as you know what will be sent in Morse code, you will likely be able to follow along at up to 2x your top speed. If you cannot copy the final repeat, you may need to drop down one speed.

This practice set is composed of the Top 500 Sets of 3 Words. These are also known as n-grams and are a stepping stone in head-copying entire sentences. These word-groups should seem familiar and common to any English speaker.

For each set of words, try to head-copy it. First, the set of words are sent in Morse code. Then it is spoken. And finally, it is sent again in Morse code. If you missed it the first time when it was sent, the second time allows you an opportunity to learn the words. (More speeds below.)

In terms of practice, it is better to have more frequent and shorter practice sessions over one or two longer practice sessions per week. Ideally, practice sessions should be no more than 15 or 20 minutes long, with two to three sessions per day. This video is long enough that you can keep coming back to it and pick up where you left off.
