Common mistakes
Check these details before copying the result into a message, worksheet, gift, or practice drill.
N starts with a dash. If you send dot-dash, you sent A instead.
O is three dahs. Zero is five dahs, so count the marks when context is unclear.
Losing the letter gap
Keep the gap between N and O so -. --- does not run together.
