Introduction

Welcome to our Morse Code Translator! Morse Code, invented by Samuel Morse and Alfred Vail in the early 1830s, revolutionized long-distance communication. Today, while it might seem archaic, Morse Code still finds relevance in various fields like aviation, amateur radio, and even emergency signaling. Our Morse Code Translator tool aims to bridge the gap between modern digital text and this historic code, making it easy for anyone to encode and decode messages in Morse Code.

What is Morse Code?

Morse Code is a method of encoding text characters as sequences of dots (.) and dashes (-). Developed in the early days of telecommunication, it was first used for telegraphy. Each letter of the alphabet and each numeral is represented by a unique sequence of dots and dashes. The simplicity of Morse Code made it ideal for early radio communication and has ensured its longevity.
