Code #2020-03
This secret message uses Morse code in disguise. First sent via telegraph in 1844, Morse code uses a series of short dots (o) and long dashes (–) to represent each letter. The current standardized version looks like this:
| A | B | C | D | E | F | G |
| o – | – ooo | – o – o | – oo | o | oo – o | – – o |
| H | I | J | K | L | M | N |
| oooo | oo | o – – – | – o – | o – oo | – – | – o |
| O | P | Q | R | S | T | U |
| – – – | o – – o | – – o – | o – o | ooo | – | oo – |
| V | W | X | Y | Z | ||
| ooo – | o – – | – oo – | – o – – | – – oo |
To solve this code, replace the eyes with dots and the lips with dashes. Then match the sequence to the proper letter. Note: There are two letters on both the first and third lines, separated by a space. Read the letters across the rows to find the secret word.
