Every letter A to Z and every number 0 to 9 in Morse code. Click any character to hear it played at standard speed. The chart follows the ITU-R M.1677-1 international standard used worldwide.
Morse code represents each character as a unique sequence of dots (·) and dashes (–). A dot is a short signal, and a dash is three times longer than a dot. Spaces between symbols within a character are one unit, between characters are three units, and between words are seven units.
Start with the most common letters — E (·) and T (–) are the simplest. Then move to I (··), A (·–), and N (–·). Practice by listening, not just reading — use the play buttons above to train your ear.
Both Morse code and Braille are encoding systems for letters, but Morse uses time-based signals (sound, light, touch) while Braille uses spatial dot patterns. Morse code was designed for transmission over wire and radio, while Braille was designed for reading by touch.
