Basic Morse code

so the very basics of Morse code are that it’s made up of dots and dashes dot and a dash now different combinations of the dots and the dashes will produce different letters and then different combinations of those letters will create words and then combinations of words will create sentences combination sentences will create paragraphs when you’re beeping out each letter dots take up one beat and then dashes take up three of those beats now the reason the tempo matters is because obviously when you get to various words you need to have some sort of separating between it space between two letters in a word would be three lengths or three beats and afterward between words would be seven.
