About this tool

This Morse code translator works both ways: type a sentence to turn it into crisp dots and dashes, or paste a string of Morse to decode it back into plain English. Invented in the 1830s for the telegraph, Morse code is still used by amateur radio operators, in aviation and as a fun puzzle.

Use spaces between letters and a slash (/) between words when decoding. Everyday letters, numbers and common punctuation are all supported, so you can spell out anything from a simple SOS to a full secret message.

Frequently asked questions

How do I write a space between words in Morse?

Use a forward slash “/” (or a double space) between words. Single spaces separate individual letters within a word.

What does SOS look like in Morse code?

SOS is “... --- ...” — three dots, three dashes, three dots. It was chosen as a distress signal because it is short and impossible to mistake.

Can it decode Morse back into text?

Yes. Switch to “Morse → Text”, paste the dots and dashes, and it reconstructs the original message instantly.

Does it support numbers and punctuation?

Yes — digits 0–9 and common punctuation such as full stops, commas, question marks and slashes are all included.
