Words are separated by
/ and letters by spaces.Tool Introduction
Translate text to Morse code or decode Morse back to letters live. Handles letters, digits, common punctuation, and / word separators — perfect for puzzles, amateur radio practice, and trivia.
Tool Overview
Morse code represents each letter and digit as a unique pattern of dots and dashes. Within a word, letters are separated by single spaces; words are separated by a forward slash (/). This tool covers the International Morse alphabet plus common punctuation and round-trips cleanly in both directions. Flip the direction toggle and the translation updates as you type, with live character and word counts. Morse is case-insensitive, so input is upper-cased before encoding. Everything runs in your browser.
Use Cases
- Encode a short message as dots and dashes for a puzzle or escape room
- Practice reading and sending Morse for amateur (ham) radio
- Decode a Morse string someone sent you back into letters
- Spell out SOS or a call sign for a project or costume
- Teach the International Morse alphabet with live examples

FAQ
How are words separated in Morse?+
Letters within a word are separated by a single space, and words are separated by a forward slash (/). The tool follows this convention in both directions.
Does case matter?+
No. Morse code is case-insensitive, so the input is upper-cased before translating. Decoded text comes back in uppercase.
Which punctuation is supported?+
Period, comma, question mark, apostrophe, exclamation mark, slash, parentheses, colon, semicolon, equals, plus, minus, underscore, quote, dollar, and at-sign.
Can it play Morse as sound?+
Not yet — audio playback is a planned upgrade. For now the output is text-based dots and dashes you can read or copy.
