Just as every letter and nikud (vowel) has a name in Hebrew, so too, do the te'amim. Using Quizlet, a popular on-line flashcard repository, one can master the names of each ta'am (trop) name before proceeding to learning how to chant the ta'am tunes.

Each color-coded button leads to a set of Quizlet flashcards that show the te'amim that may be found in a biblical phrase ending with the named ta'am.

Click on "English" to study ta'am names in transliteration.
