Letter by letter
How "Love You" is built in Morse
Love You is 7 characters — 10 dots and 12 dashes in all. Here is each letter with its Morse code so you can send or write it one symbol at a time:
Sending Love You by sound or light
Love You is 83 Morse units long, counting a 1-unit gap inside each character, a 3-unit gap between letters and a 7-unit gap between words. At a beginner's 5 words per minute that is 19.9 seconds of signal; an experienced operator at 25 WPM sends it in 4.0 seconds.
| Speed | 5 WPM | 13 WPM | 20 WPM | 25 WPM |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Time to send | 19.9 s | 7.7 s | 5.0 s | 4.0 s |
Saying it out loud
Morse is not the only way a word gets through a noisy channel. When an operator has to spell Love You by voice, each letter becomes its NATO phonetic word — the same alphabet used by aviation and the military, and the reason “B” is never mistaken for “D”:
Lima · Oscar · Victor · Echo · Yankee · Oscar · Uniform
Stressed as LEE mah — OSS car — VIK tah — ECK oh — YANG key — OSS car — YOU nee form. The full table is on the NATO alphabet page.
Turn Love You into something you can keep
