What is the Morse Code Translator?
Morse code represents each letter and number with a pattern of short signals (dots) and long signals (dashes). Samuel Morse and Alfred Vail developed it in the 1830s and 1840s for the telegraph, and it is still used by radio amateurs, pilots, sailors and in accessibility devices. This translator converts in both directions as you type.
Type normal text to get dots and dashes, or paste Morse (using . and - with spaces between letters and a slash between words) to decode it. Press Play to hear it as audio, and adjust the speed and pitch to practise copying or to send it to a friend.
