Morse code translator FAQ
How do I write Morse code here?
Use a period for a dot and a hyphen for a dash. Put one space between letters and a forward slash between words, for example .... . .-.. .-.. --- / .-- --- .-. .-.. -..
What speed is standard for Morse code?
Amateur radio operators often practice at 15 to 20 words per minute. Beginners usually start around 5 to 10 WPM and increase speed as they get comfortable.
Can it read numbers and punctuation?
Yes. It covers the 26 letters, the digits 0 to 9, and common punctuation including a period, comma, question mark and hyphen.
Why did a character disappear from my result?
A note appears when a character has no standard Morse code, such as most accented letters and symbols. That character is skipped rather than guessed.
Does the sound work on mobile?
Yes, it uses your browser's audio engine, so it plays on phones and tablets. Turn the volume up and make sure the tab is not muted.
