f and t for finding a specific character. F will land on it. T will land just prior to it Capital F and Capital T do the same, but in reverse Semicolon repeats Use / for searching.

D,A,W to delete the current word including the (delete a word) If you don’t want to lose the space use D,I,W for (delete inner word)
You can do this same thing with paragraphs (contiguous lines) by using the P operator. Ex: >,I,P to indent an entire paragraph
Use CC to empty the current line and begin to replace the contents of that line Use DD to remove the entire line
CIW to swapping out this word with a completely new one From this course I learned that I need to use shift on my right hand more. I apparently predominantly manage shift with my right hand, but that makes pressing characters like ” difficult as I have to completely leave the home row. They give you a shift on both sides for a reason.
