Printable Morse Code Chart

The complete International Morse code on one sheet: every letter, every digit, and the common punctuation marks. Print this page directly (the print version drops everything except the chart) or grab a download for offline use, classrooms, or the fridge door.

Dash = 3 dots long  ·  Gap between letters = 3 dots  ·  Gap between words = 7 dots

How to use the chart

To encode, find each letter and copy its dots and dashes, leaving a space between letters and a slash between words. To decode, work in the other direction, one group at a time. Timing is what makes it morse rather than noise: a dash lasts three times as long as a dot, letters are separated by a three-dot silence, and words by a seven-dot silence.

If you'd rather hear the codes than read them, the alphabet page plays every letter aloud, the numbers page explains the five-element digit rule, and the punctuation page covers the symbols and prosigns in detail. For anything longer than a letter, the translator converts whole messages with sound and light.
