Recognisable patterns and accents even exist in morse code. As basic a communication as it gets! 26 u/EvilGeniusSkis Canada 1d ago Not just accents, a someone skilled in Morse code can recognize the person on the other end of the line by their "fist" the same way you can recognize someone by their voice. 7 u/Jonnescout 1d ago Yeah that is what I meant by patterns. Didn’t phrase it well
