What is Morse Code?

Morse code encodes text as a series of dots (.) and dashes (-). Each letter, number, and many punctuation marks have a unique sequence. Developed in the 1830s–1840s for telegraphy, it remains in use for aviation, amateur radio, and emergency signaling (e.g. SOS).

The Tooladex Morse Code Translator uses International Morse Code. Letters are separated by spaces; words by / or |. Everything runs locally in your browser.
