Can this Morse code translator play audio?

Yes — it is a Morse code translator with audio playback: press Play and the dots and dashes sound out as clean 600 Hz tones, at any speed from 5 to 60 wpm. No download or sign-up needed.

Can I turn Morse code into an image?

Yes — click the PNG button in the playback bar and the tool draws your Morse code as a clean poster-style picture: large dots for dits, rounded bars for dahs, grouped by letter with wide word gaps, wrapped and centered with generous margins. The image shows only the Morse marks — no source text — and downloads as morse-code.png at 2x resolution, ready for worksheets, posters or sharing.

Can I download the Morse audio as a file?

Yes — click the WAV button next to Play and the 600 Hz tone sequence renders offline and downloads as a morse- wpm.wav file, ready for practice tapes, ringtones or sharing.

How do I translate Morse code to English?

Paste the dots and dashes into the input box and the Morse → Text card decodes them to plain English instantly — words separated by " / " or three-plus spaces both work. It is the same translator even if you typed "translater" while searching: one tool, both directions.

Can I decode Morse from an audio file?

Yes. Upload or drop a WAV or MP3 in the Decode audio card and the Morse code audio decoder detects the 600 Hz tone timing, estimates the speed in wpm and prints the decoded text — all locally in your browser.

Can I decode Morse from a picture?

Yes — in the Decode card, use Upload image (or drop a file) with a picture of dot-and-bar Morse graphics: round dots and long bars, like the PNG this tool exports. The decoder binarizes the image, finds the mark rows and reads the timing back into text, all locally in your browser. It reads graphics only — a photo of ".-" characters needs OCR, which is not supported; paste the dots and dashes into the input box to decode those.

What does wpm mean in Morse code?

Words per minute, measured against the reference word "PARIS" (50 units). At 12 wpm one unit is 100 ms; at 20 wpm it is 60 ms.

Which characters are supported?

Letters A–Z, digits 0–9, and the common punctuation defined by ITU M.1677-1, including period, comma, question mark and slash.

How are word separators written?

Words are separated by " / " in the text output. The decoder also accepts three or more spaces between words.

About the Morse Code Translator

Morse code is easier to learn by ear than by eye. This Morse code translator and generator converts your text to standard ITU dots and dashes, decodes Morse back to letters, and — the part most tools skip — plays the code aloud as a clean 600 Hz sine tone at any speed from 5 to 60 words per minute.

Timing follows the international standard: a dit is one unit, a dah three, gaps inside a letter one unit, between letters three, and between words seven. Start slow and work up as your ear improves. Download the tone sequence as a WAV file, turn Morse into an image with the PNG export, send it as flashes of light with the full-screen Flash mode, or upload a recording and decode Morse from audio with the built-in decoder.

How to use it

1Type plain text to generate Morse code, or paste dots and dashes to decode.
2Drag the speed slider — 12 wpm is a gentle start, 20+ wpm for practice.
3Press Play to hear the code; press Stop to cut it off.
4Click WAV for the audio file or PNG to turn Morse into an image, or use Flash to blink it from your screen.
5Upload or drop a WAV/MP3 in Decode audio to turn sound back into text.
