Write 1 first, then 0, with a letter gap between them.
How It Works
In Morse code, 10 is written as two separate digits. There is no unique single symbol for the whole number.
That matters because beginners sometimes search for 10 expecting a special shortcut. The correct approach is always to encode each digit in order.
Common Confusions
- Looking for one combined code instead of two digit codes.
- Removing the gap between the 1 and the 0.
- Assuming numbers follow the same length patterns as letters.
How to Verify It
- Use the translator to convert 10 and confirm the result is .---- -----
- Check both digits separately on the numbers page if you are unsure.
- Decode the final pattern back to make sure the spacing stayed intact.
Useful tools: Translator, Decoder, Chart, Alphabet and Numbers.
Practice Tips
- Practice 10, 11, 12, and 20 together.
- Say one then zero while you send the pattern.
- Keep the gap between digits clean so the decoder reads it correctly.
