I need some pangrams that are dominated by the homerow keys.

Codeium at 11:31 am, Jul 11, 2024

A pangram that is dominated by the homerow keys (A, S, D, F, G, H, J, K, L) would be a sentence that uses these keys more frequently than others while still including at least one of each letter of the alphabet. Here are a few examples crafted to meet this criterion:

1. "Jackdaws love my big sphinx of quartz."
2. "A quick movement of the enemy will jeopardize six gunboats."
3. "All questions asked by five watched experts amaze the judge."

These sentences attempt to use the homerow keys more frequently, though complete domination by homerow keys and achieving a perfect pangram can be quite challenging due to the necessity of including every letter of the alphabet at least once.

x and q are not in in the home row. I think I need pangrams that only feature home row keys.

Codeium at 11:32 am, Jul 11, 2024

Creating a pangram that includes every letter of the alphabet using only the homerow keys (A, S, D, F, G, H, J, K, L) is actually impossible, as the definition of a pangram requires at least one instance of every letter in the alphabet, and the homerow keys do not include all 26 letters of the alphabet.

However, if you are looking for sentences that heavily feature homerow keys but may not be pangrams, we can certainly focus on those letters. Since a true pangram with this constraint cannot be created, I'll provide a sentence that heavily utilizes homerow keys, even though it won't meet the pangram criteria:

"A sad lass, a glad dad."

This sentence doesn't include every letter of the alphabet, highlighting the limitation of restricting to homerow keys only. For tasks or creative writing that focus on homerow dexterity, consider setting goals that don't require the use of every alphabet letter.

I want to redefine pangram, if there isn't already a word for this, to mean sentences that feature a specified set of keys instead of all characters.

A traditional pangram is created using all characters. It is a subset of what I am asking for. I want a sentence of set of sentences that are constructed from a specified set of characters. A pangram uses the set [a-zA-Z] but I want the set [asdfghjkl;ASDFGHJKL:].

I don't know what that is called, or what it could be called, but that is what I want, and if there is a better name for it please tell me what that name is.

The concept you're describing doesn't align with a traditional pangram but rather introduces a unique variation. Since traditional pangrams aim to include every letter of the alphabet at least once in a sentence, your concept focuses on creating meaningful content using only a specific subset of characters from the keyboard, specifically the homerow keys (including both lowercase, uppercase, and the semicolon ';' character as an inclusion).

This variation doesn't have a widely recognized name in linguistic or keyboarding practice as of my last update. However, you could consider calling it a "homerow pangram" for clarity sake, although it's a bit of a misnomer since "pangram" specifically refers to the inclusion of every letter of the alphabet. Alternatively, a term like "homerow constrained text" or "keyset-focused sentences" might more accurately describe your intention without borrowing the specific implications of "pangram."

Given your specified set of characters [asdfghjkl;ASDFGHJKL:], creating sentences solely from these keys is a creative challenge. Here’s an example sentence using only those keys:

"Ask dad; [A sad lass had salad.]"

This sentence sticks to the specified keys, although it includes brackets for clarity, which are not in your specified set. If you're strictly adhering to the key set without any punctuation beyond the semicolon, the challenge increases. Remember, the purpose and context of this exercise might dictate the flexibility in punctuation and capitalization.

The purpose or context is that I'm using it for a typing-tutor type of TUI terminal interface typing tutorial.

I very much like the sentence you suggested and have already adopted it.

the minimal inclusion of brackets is not a problem.

Can you provide me with more sets of sentences that focus on the home row keys?

Given your context and needs for a typing tutor TUI terminal interface, focusing on homerow typing exercises is a fantastic way to help users improve their typing speed and accuracy. Here are additional sets of sentences crafted to utilize the homerow keys [asdfghjkl;ASDFGHJKL:], including minimal punctuation for clarity:

1. "A gallant lad; a glass."
   "Jada has a glass flask."
   

2. "Sad, Sasha asks Alf."
   "Kafka’s glass jar."
   

3. "Lads’ flags fall as gaffs sag."
   "Jag ska ha glass."
   

4. "A sad saga: all ask Dad."
   "Glass shards flash."
   

5. "Alas, Khal’s flask has a crack."
   "Dad’s jalap had gas."
   

These strings are designed to help familiarize users with the homerow position, offering a range of difficulty and involving minimal use of punctuation to maintain focus on the homerow keys. They can be useful for encouraging the development of muscle memory associated with the most efficient finger positions for touch typing.

Remember, the utility of these exercises in a typing tutor program is to improve the user's comfort and speed with the homerow keys, which are central to efficient touch typing techniques.

I don't know what the character code is for the thing that looks like an apostrophe in this sentence:

"Alas, Khal’s flask has a crack."

It's not an apostraphe, so it can't be typed by the user in the tutor. I either have to figure out how to tell the user how to type that specific character, or make sure that such characters are never included in the phrases and to scan the Phrases.ts for such characters as part of the project build process.

Codeium at 8:04 am, Jul 12, 2024

The character that looks like an apostrophe in the sentence "Alas, Khal’s flask has a crack." is likely a curly apostrophe (’), also known as a right single quotation mark. In Unicode, its character code is U+2019. This character is distinct from the straight apostrophe ('), which is what you usually get when typing directly from the keyboard, and its character code is U+0027.

For a typing tutor, especially one focused on a TUI (Text User Interface) where users might be relying on standard keyboards without easy access to special characters, it is advisable to use characters that can be easily typed. Thus, replacing curly apostrophes with straight apostrophes and avoiding other special characters not directly accessible on a standard keyboard layout would enhance usability.

To ensure phrases only contain easily typable characters, you could implement a check in your project build process. Here’s a quick example of how you might scan the Phrases.ts for non-standard characters, specifically focusing on the apostrophe issue, in a Node.js environment:

import phrases from './src/utils/Phrases';

const standardChars = /^[a-zA-Z0-9\s'";:.!,?]+$/;

const checkPhrases = () => {
  phrases.phrases.forEach((phrase, index) => {
    if (!standardChars.test(phrase.value)) {
      console.warn(`Phrase at index ${index} contains non-standard characters: ${phrase.value}`);
    }
  });
};

checkPhrases();

This script imports the phrases, iterates over them, and logs a warning if a phrase contains characters outside the defined standardChars regex pattern. This pattern includes basic punctuation but excludes characters like the curly apostrophe.

Adjust the regex pattern as needed to include any specific characters you want to allow or disallow based on your application's requirements.
