Morse Code Numbers Chart

Every International Morse digit uses five marks. The patterns change one mark at a time, which makes the sequence easier to learn as a family.

Practice Recognizing Morse Code Numbers

Listen to one hidden digit, type your answer, and check it. This isolates the 0–9 patterns instead of mixing them with letters.

How Morse Code Numbers 0–9 Are Organized

Morse digits form a predictable progression. Learning the sequence as two mirrored families is faster than memorizing ten unrelated five-mark strings.

1 .----

One through five add dots

1 starts with one dot and four dashes. Each next digit replaces one dash with a dot until 5 becomes five dots.

6 -....

Six through zero add dashes

6 starts with one dash and four dots. Each next digit replaces another dot with a dash until 0 becomes five dashes.

..... ↔ -----

Five and zero are useful anchors

5 is all dots and 0 is all dashes. Use those endpoints to orient the two halves of the sequence when listening.

How to Read and Write Numbers in Morse Code

01

Read one five-mark digit at a time

Each number has exactly five signal marks. Identify the full rhythm of one digit, then move to the next. The listening drill above helps you practice without seeing the answer first.

02

Keep the original number order

When writing a sequence, translate each digit separately and preserve its position. A standard letter gap separates adjacent digits; a larger word-style gap can separate number groups when needed for readability.

03

Listen at a steady speed

Use one WPM setting until the five-mark patterns become familiar. If you need exact dit, dah, letter-gap, and duration calculations, use the Morse Code Timing Calculator.

Questions about Morse digits

Morse Code Numbers FAQ

Are there numbers in Morse code?

Yes. International Morse Code defines a signal for every digit from 0 through 9. Each digit uses exactly five dots and dashes, with one short intra-character gap between the marks.

How do I read Morse code numbers?

Read one five-mark digit pattern at a time. Digits 1 through 5 begin with an increasing number of dots, while 6 through 0 begin with an increasing number of dashes. Listening to the complete rhythm is usually more useful than counting every mark individually.

How do I write numbers in Morse code?

Convert each digit separately and keep the digits in the same order. For example, 2 is ..--- and 0 is -----. Use the converter on this page for longer number sequences and spaces between separate groups.

Why do Morse code numbers use five signals?

The standard digit set uses a regular five-mark progression. One starts with one dot and four dashes, five is five dots, six starts with one dash and four dots, and zero ends the sequence with five dashes.

Can I listen to a full number in Morse code?

Yes. Enter a digit sequence in the tool, choose a playback speed from 5 to 40 WPM, and play the complete sequence. You can also download the same sequence as a WAV file.

Where can I learn letters as well as numbers?

Use the Morse Code Alphabet page for the complete A–Z, 0–9, and punctuation chart. Use the Practice page when you want broader listening and receiving drills that mix letters, numbers, and short words.
