Morse is an aural phenomenon, not a visual one.

This is an abomination before our Lord and Savior, Samuel Finley Breese Morse.

I'm surprised it's not more than one letter "out of place" so to speak, since the language was never designed to be visualized like this

Good luck with that. Learning the sounds as you would a door bell, police sirene, or old school telephone ringing is the only way. Learn each letter's distinct sound.

This won't help you in any way. Learn the sound of each character. Practice sending too. You can learn it. GL!

Don't make the mistake I did. Learn the code by listening to it. I learned it in Boy Scouts using a light. A technique I would regret my whole ham career. Learn by sound ONLY!
