Telegraphy

It is a phonetic alphabet that uses 26 code words.

These words are used to ensure oral communication is clearly understood.

The NATO, North Atlantic Treaty Organization, phonetic alphabet became effective in 1956 and just a few years later became the established universal phonetic alphabet.

However, it took several adaptations before the version used today came into effect.

The Morse Code is a method of encoding textual information using sequences of short and long signals—commonly called “dots” and “dashes”—invented by the American artist and inventor Samuel F. B. Morse and his collaborator Alfred Vail in 1837. Originally developed for telegraph communication, Morse Code translates letters, numbers, and punctuation into variable-length sequences of electrical pulses, audible tones, or visual signals, allowing messages to be sent across long distances using a binary-like system.
