How do I translate text into Morse code?

Type your message into the translator. The tool converts every letter and number into standard International Morse Code dots (`.`) and dashes (`-`).

How do I decode Morse code back into English?

Paste your Morse code into the tool and select 'Morse to Text'. The decoder translates the dots and dashes back into readable English text.

What is the Morse code for SOS?

The universal distress signal SOS is `... --- ...` (3 dots, 3 dashes, 3 dots).

Can I listen to Morse code audio beeps?

Yes. Click 'Play Audio' to hear the message played as authentic 550Hz acoustic audio beeps at standard radio speeds.

What punctuation marks are supported in Morse code?

The translator supports standard punctuation including period (`.-.-.-`), comma (`--..--`), question mark (`..--..`), and slash (`-..-.`).

Can I translate Morse code back into plain text English?

Yes. The translator is bidirectional, converting text to Morse code (dots and dashes) and decoding Morse code strings back into readable text.

Can I listen to the Morse code audio playback?

Yes. The tool features an audio synthesizer that beeps the Morse code dot and dash tones using Web Audio API.

What Are the Rules of International Morse Code Timing?

International Morse Code timing is standardized around the duration of one 'dot' (1 unit). A 'dash' equals 3 units. The space between dots and dashes within the same letter is 1 unit. The space between letters in a word is 3 units, and the space between separate words is 7 units (often represented by `/` in written Morse).

Key Capabilities & Pro Tips

Standard SOS Signal: SOS in Morse code is `... --- ...` (three dots, three dashes, three dots).
Word Separators: Written Morse code uses a slash `/` or multiple spaces to indicate boundaries between words.
Web Audio Beeps: Uses the browser Web Audio API oscillator for crisp, authentic CW radio tone generation.

100% Client-Side Privacy Guarantee

All text transformations, lexical analysis, character counts, and diff comparisons occur 100% locally inside your web browser. Your confidential drafts, notes, and datasets are never uploaded to or stored on any external server.
