I’m not stopping you, lol.
Just try to do a few training exercises every day, those really helped me.
And as a bonus, you already know 2 letters! The A and M are the same as on qwerty. And if the other letters on the keyboard distract you, you can always tape over them.
Good luck, I believe in you!
I actively practiced with whatever tool gnome had built-in at the time, it’s called klavaro or something. It’s a very simple practicing app.
It took about two weeks for me to get familiar enough to be able to work in it without having to switch back sometimes.
The trick is just like with learning a new language: don’t switch back unless you absolutely have to, not when it would be convenient/faster.
Within a month or two you’ll be typing Dvorak like you’ve never even heard of qwerty.
Some things to note:
At the time I learned dvorak I was not fully typing qwerty with ten fingers, so ymmv.
I’m actually using programmer’s Dvorak; the difference is in the placement of the non-letter characters.
I don’t necessarily recommend it over regular Dvorak; if you find yourself regularly using other people’s machines, I’d probably recommend against it. Every major OS has Dvorak built-in, but not programmer Dvorak.
everywhere I use 10 fingers to type, I use dvorak; but I still use qwerty on my phone.
I tried dvorak on my phone keyboard, but my thumbs kept bumping into each other. It was too annoying so I switched back.
The definition of the word spam (as in too many messages, e.g. email spam) comes from a Monty Python sketch that was repeated as a meme ad-absurdum on newsgroups, turning it into spam. Which I learned here.
The USA: where money has been legally transmogrified to free speech.
You definitely have a way with words!
I mean, Star Wars was meant to be a direct allegory for the War in Vietnam so….
Huh, I didn’t know that. I just tried it out and it worked.
I think I’ll stick with memrise for now.
Thanks though!
I just tried it out and I like it a lot better than duolingo.
Duolingo is super gamified and you can’t keep practicing after you made a few mistakes. I just practiced for an hour with memrise and it was nice. There’s also video exercises in the app, and you can also practice chatting (with an AI probably?). I hope it holds up.
I would love to compare babbel too, but Arabic is not available there.

I don’t know how up-to-date those are
