And combine those with the home row keys.

/// /// zzz zzz /// zzz ;;; /// ;;; /// aaa zzz aaa zzz ;/; ;/; aza aza /;/ /;/ zaz zaz aza aza szs szs dzd dzd fzf fzf gzg gzg hzh hzh jzj jzj kzk kzk lzl lzl ;z; ;z; a/a a/a s/s s/s d/d d/d f/f f/f g/g g/g h/h h/h j/j j/j k/k k/k l/l l/l ;/; ;/;
The n and b keys are the final 2 bottom row keys. You will reach these keys by moving your index fingers down and to the side. Practice extending your right index finger down and to the left to hit the n key. Then try reaching down and to the right with your left index finger for the b key.
