"Morse code Morse code is a character encoding scheme used in telecommunication that encodes text characters as standardized sequences of two different signal durations called ""dots"" and ""dashes"" or ""dits"" and ""dahs"". Morse code is named for Samuel F. B. Morse, an inventor of the telegraph. The International Morse Code encodes the ISO basic Latin alphabet, some extra Latin letters, the Arabic numerals and a small set of punctuation and procedural signals (prosigns). Each Morse code symbol is formed by a sequence of dots and dashes. The dot duration is the basic unit of time measurement in Morse code transmission."

"Telegraph code A telegraph code is one of the character encodings used to transmit information through telegraphy machines. The most famous such code is Morse code. Morse code can be transmitted and received with very simple electrical equipment, such as the electrical telegraph invented in 1816. Morse code represents each letter of the alphabet as a series of ""dots and dashes"" (short and long bursts of electronically-generated noise). The speed of sending is directly related to the length of the shortest (dot) element: a dash is three dots long, an inter-character gap is the same length (3 dots), and inter-word"
"Morse is dah-dah-di-dah, which can be memorized by the phrase ""God save the Queen"", and the Morse for ""F"" is di-di-dah-dit, which can be memorized as ""Did she like it."" A well-known Morse code rhythm from the Second World War period derives from Beethoven's Fifth Symphony, the opening phrase of which was regularly played at the beginning of BBC broadcasts. The timing of the notes corresponds to the Morse for ""V"", di-di-di-dah, understood as ""V for Victory"" (as well as the Roman numeral for the number five). Prosigns for Morse code are special (usually) unwritten procedural signals or symbols that"
"Morse code for non-Latin alphabets This is a summary of the use of Morse code to represent alphabets other than Latin. The Greek Morse code alphabet is very similar to the Latin alphabet. It uses one extra letter for Greek letter ""Χ"" and does not use the codes for Latin letters ""J"", ""U"" and ""V"". The ""tonos"" is not transmitted in Morse code; the receiver can simply infer which vowels require one. The ""Greek diphthongs"" presented in the bottom three rows of the table are specified in old Greek Morse-code tables but they are never used in actual communication, the"

The distress signal is a continuous sequence of three dots, three dashes, and three dots, with no spaces between the letters (notated by the overscore).

"was later made the standard by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU). Morse's original code specification, largely limited to use in the United States and Canada, became known as American Morse code or ""railroad code"". American Morse code is now seldom used except in historical re-enactments. In aviation, pilots use radio navigation aids. To ensure that the stations the pilots are using are serviceable, the stations transmit a set of identification letters (usually a two-to-five-letter version of the station name) in Morse code. Station identification letters are shown on air navigation charts. For example, the VOR-DME based at Vilo Acuña Airport"
"receiving Morse code when it is taught as a language that is heard, instead of one read from a page. To reflect the sounds of Morse code receivers, the operators began to vocalize a dot as ""dit"", and a dash as ""dah"". Dots which are not the final element of a character became vocalized as ""di"". For example, the letter ""c"" was then vocalized as ""dah-di-dah-dit"". Morse code was sometimes facetiously known as ""iddy-umpty"", and a dash as ""umpty"", leading to the word ""umpteen"". The Morse code, as it is used internationally today, was derived from a much refined proposal"
"The duration of a dash is three times the duration of a dot. Each dot or dash within a character is followed by period of signal absence, called a ""space"", equal to the dot duration. The letters of a word are separated by a space of duration equal to three dots, and the words are separated by a space equal to seven dots. To increase the efficiency of encoding, Morse code was designed so that the length of each symbol is approximately inverse to the frequency of occurrence in text of the English language character that it represents. Thus the"

Morse code can be memorized, and Morse code signalling in a form perceptible to the human senses, such as sound waves or visible light, can be directly interpreted by persons trained in the skill.

Another key feature of this alphabet is that it included only lower-case letters, making it unicase. A typewriter keyboard was proposed as well: for the additional characters,"

The last letter of the English alphabet is called ""zed"" everywhere in the English-speaking world except for the United States, where it is known as ""zee"".
