About this tool

Convert plain text into Morse code. Letters become dot-dash sequences separated by spaces, with " / " between words.

Example

Input: SOS HI

Output: ... --- ... / .... ..

How to use

Paste or type your text into the box above, then read or copy the result. Everything runs privately in your browser, your text is never uploaded to a server.

How to use this tool

  1. Type or paste plain text into the input box.
  2. Check that the text uses letters, numbers, or common punctuation you want translated.
  3. Click the translate button to convert the text to Morse code.
  4. Copy the output, where letters are separated by spaces and words are separated by /.

Step by step, what happens

  1. The tool reads your plain text one character at a time.
  2. Each supported letter or symbol is converted into its Morse code sequence using dots and dashes.
  3. The tool inserts a space between each translated character so the output is easy to read.
  4. When it reaches a word break, it uses / between words so the message stays grouped correctly.

Worked example

Here is a simple example using a short greeting you might want to send in Morse code.

Input: Hello world

  1. The tool takes Hello and translates each letter into Morse code.
  2. It adds / between Hello and world to show the word break.
  3. The final output keeps each Morse letter separated by spaces.

Output: .... . .-.. .-.. --- / .-- --- .-. .-.. -..

Tips and common mistakes

  • Use plain text for the cleanest result, since the tool translates characters directly.
  • Remember that spaces in your input become / in Morse code, not extra letter gaps.
  • If you need a specific punctuation mark, check whether it is supported before relying on the output.
  • Keep the input short when you want to verify the translation quickly, then paste longer text once you are confident.

Frequently asked questions
