MAKE MORSE CODE
THE CODE Also See: S.O.S.

MORSE CODE: In Morse Code each letter of the alphabet is represented by combinations of just two signs - a short sign (dot . ) and a long sign (dash _ ).

The code alphabet (invented by a man named Morse) is shown below.

Also shown is the PHONETIC ALPHABET - a way to say letters so they will not be misunderstood (because B sounds like C and D and E and G and P and T and V). Instead of ABC you say "Alpha Bravo Charlie". This is important for people like pilots and sailors or people who use radios to talk to each other.
