Morse alphabet: Definition and part of speech

Morse alphabet

  1. A telegraphic alphabet in very general use, inventing by Samuel F.B.Morse, the inventor of Morse’s telegraph. The letters are represented by dots and dashes impressed or printed on paper, as, .- (A), – . . . (B), -.. (D), . (E), .. (O), . . . (R), — (T), etc., or by sounds, flashes of light, etc., with greater or less intervals between them.

The word meanings were obtained from OPTED(The Online Plain Text English Dictionary), which is based on “The Project Gutenberg Etext of Webster’s Unabridged Dictionary” which is in turn based on the 1913 US Webster’s Unabridged Dictionary (See Project Gutenburg), as a text file.
