Frequently Asked Questions

How does the Morse Code Translator work?

The tool maps each letter, number and punctuation character to its standard international Morse code equivalent (dots and dashes), and vice versa for decoding. Translation happens instantly in your browser.

What is Morse code?

Morse code is a communication system developed in the 1830s by Samuel Morse and Alfred Vail. It encodes letters and numbers as sequences of short signals (dots) and long signals (dashes), originally transmitted as electrical pulses over telegraph wires.

What do dots and dashes represent?

A dot (.) represents a short signal — one unit of time. A dash (-) represents a long signal — three units of time. Letters are separated by a space and words by a slash (/).

Can I hear the Morse code played out loud?

Yes — click the Play button and your browser will play the Morse code as audio through the Web Audio API. No plugins or downloads required.

Does it support numbers and punctuation?

Yes — the translator supports all 26 English letters (A–Z), digits 0–9, and common punctuation marks including . , ? ' ! / ( ) & : ; = + - _ " $ @.

Is my text private?

Yes. All translation and audio generation happen entirely in your browser. Nothing is ever uploaded to any server.
