Convert some text to Morse to hear it played back.

Word breaksA single space separates letters; a slash (/) marks the space between words.
Unsupported charactersCharacters outside the supported table, including emoji, non-Latin scripts, and accented letters other than É, pass through unchanged.
PARIS timing standardSpeed is measured in words per minute using "PARIS" as the reference word — the same standard ham radio operators use.

How to convert text to Morse code (and back)

The Morse code conventions used here

Each letter and digit maps to a sequence of dots (.) and dashes (-). A single space separates letters within a word, and a forward slash (/) marks the space between words — the standard convention for writing Morse in plain text.

How to use it

  • Choose "Text → Morse" or "Morse → Text" to pick a direction.
  • Type or paste your input; the result updates as you type.
  • Use Copy to grab the result, and Clear to start over.
  • When converting to Morse, hit Play to hear the code as real beeps, tune the speed (WPM) and tone, or download it as a WAV file.
  • Playback and WAV generation support up to 5 minutes of audio and 100,000 Morse characters. Shorten the message or increase the speed if it exceeds that limit.
  • On the "Reference" tab, tap any letter, digit, or punctuation mark to hear its code on its own.

What doesn't convert

The converter supports A-Z, digits, É, ×, and common punctuation (.,?'!/()&:;=+-_"$@). Other accented letters, emoji, and non-Latin scripts pass through unchanged.

Spacing rules

Text-to-Morse separates encoded characters with spaces and turns word spaces into /. Morse-to-text decodes each line independently.

SOS test

SOS becomes three short, three long, three short.

Morse text handling

Conversion, playback, and WAV generation run locally in your browser. Text and Morse code are not uploaded or stored, and unknown characters remain visible for manual review.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the / character mean?

It marks a word break when converting to Morse, matching how Morse is conventionally written as text. When decoding, a / turns back into a space.

Does this decode audio Morse (beeps)?

It generates the audio: converting to Morse lets you play the code as real beeps, adjust speed and tone, and even download a WAV file. What it doesn't do is the reverse — listening to audio and transcribing the Morse automatically.

Is this the international Morse code standard?

It uses International Morse Code mappings for A-Z, digits, and common punctuation, plus É. The × symbol uses the same sequence as X.

Why did some characters stay unchanged?

Only supported letters, digits, and common punctuation have Morse mappings. Unsupported characters are left as typed so you can edit them manually.
