Morse code was devised in the 19th century by Samuel Morse, an American who had also invented the electric telegraph. Morse wanted to develop a system of dots (.) and dashes (-) that would send messages along the telegraph quickly.
Tích and Tè
In Morse code, each letter in the American alphabet corresponds to a specific combination of dots (tích) and dashes (tè), between one and four dots and/or dashes in length.
Tích: short sound (.)
Tè: long sound (-)
Morse Tree
The Morse tree is the quickest way for beginners to learn how to decode. Start from the bottom (at “E” or “T”) and continue working your way up/over (if necessary) until you find the letter that corresponds to your combination of tích and tè characters.
