the very basics, think of it like a grid, an odd grid, designed by medieval monks. Instead of an x and y axis, each written note has two bits of information. How long it is, and how high or low it is.

First duration, or "how long". Look at the shape of the note. Is the note coloured in, is it empty, is it joined up to another note, is it by itself, does it have a stem, all this tells you how long the note is.

is a good link to start to think about duration

the next step is pitch. This mean how high or low the note is, or what is its name (is it an A, B flat, F sharp etc). We record this information on the grid of five lines. This group of five lines is called the stave or staff. Where the note is, up and down the staff tellsus the name of the note. Eg, if it is on the bottom line, I know it is an E, if it is sitting between the third and fourth line I know it is a C. This link tells you about the different position in the stave and what notes they mean

This is a real basic introduction to reading notation. Like most things the further you go into it the more complicated and contradictory it get. but it all builds on the basics. Good luck.

What kind of notes? I think you might mean musical notes, the easiest way to learn to read music is by learning an instrument from an instructor or from a book as both of these will teach you. The book is the cheaper option and you can learn to play the recorder or something similar for around £10 ($20).
Have a great time!

Presumably you are talking about music notes?

If you are, then i learnt using the following phrases.

For the lines reading up, i used "Every Good Boy Deserves Football.

And for the spaces between line "FACE"

So From Bottom to top E F G A B C D E

thats the very basics

Ok Im no music man but for notation isnt it? ...

Notes appearing on the lines are (from the bottom going up)

E -very
G -reen
B -us
D -rives
F -fast

and between the lines

F
A
C
E

Does that help?

If im wrong - someone slap me and I will delete my answer.

I presume you're talking about musical notation, if not my advice is wasted! Learn the treble (lines, E,G,B,D,F, spaces, F,A,C,E) and bass clefs (lines G,B,D,F,A, spaces A,C,E,G) and then learn to play scales and simple pieces in C major. If you're not learning musical notes, I've just wasted three minutes explaining it to you!

Sorry the best way is take music lessons it is a long & time cosuming way but the rewards when you can play music from sheet music are great

Strange question. Why don't you add a bit more info and then you'll maybe get some sensible answers.
