What is Morse Code?
Morse code is a method used in telecommunication to encode text characters as standardized sequences of two different signal durations, called dots and dashes (or dits and dahs). Invented by Samuel Morse in 1836, it was widely used in early telegraphs, radio communications, and distress signals (like the famous SOS: ... --- ...).
Standard Morse code consists of short "dot" signals (`.`) and longer "dash" signals (`-`). With our online translator, your text is converted in real-time.
