67 in Morse Code
"67" in Morse code is –···· ––···. Numbers in Morse code always use five signals, so digits are easy to spot once you know the pattern.
The number
Timeline: 1 unit per dot, 3 per dash, 3 between letters.
Spoken aloud: dah dit dit dit dit · dah dah dit dit dit
Breakdown
67, letter by letter
Morse code has no symbol for a whole number. You send each character in order and leave a pause of three units between them. Click any character to hear it on its own.
Longest character: 6 (-...., 5 signals). Shortest: 6 (-....). Time units follow the standard 1-3-1-3-7 rule; at 15 words per minute one unit is 0.08 seconds, so the whole number takes about 2.2 seconds. At a beginner's 5 WPM it takes about 6.5 s, at 20 WPM about 1.6 s.
Four ways
How to send "67" in Morse code
The pattern is always –···· ––···. What changes is the medium. Here is the same number as sound, light, taps and text, with timing that works for this exact message.
By sound
Whistle, hum, beep or press the Listen button above. A dot is one short beep, a dash is three times longer. For "67" that is 7 short and 3 long beeps, about 2.2 seconds at a normal 15 WPM. If you are humming it for someone who is still learning, slow down to 5 WPM (about 6.5 s) and keep the gaps generous.
By light
With a flashlight or your phone's torch, use a pace of roughly 0.25 s on for a dot and 0.75 s on for a dash, with the light off for 0.25 s between signals and 0.75 s between letters. Sent that way, "67" takes around 6.5 seconds. The Flash it button above shows the rhythm on the small lamp. More in Morse code with light.
By tapping
Knock on a table, a wall or a pipe: 7 quick taps for the dots and 3 longer knocks for the dashes, with a clear pause between letters. Most people make the dash by holding the knuckle on the surface a beat longer, or by a short double-tap, as long as both sides agree beforehand. Our Morse code tapping guide covers the conventions.
As text
Paste the dots and dashes into a chat, a card or a caption. Keep one space between letters so the reader can decode it without guessing:
-.... --...
Numbers in Morse
Why numbers look different in Morse
Every digit in International Morse code is exactly five signals long, which is why "67" (-.... --...) looks heavier than a short word. The digits follow a mirror pattern: 1 through 5 start with that many dots and fill up with dashes, 6 through 0 start with dashes and fill up with dots. So 6 is -.... and 7 is --..., each a dash-first digit with the remaining spots taken by dots. Once you see the system, you can rebuild any digit without memorizing it.
About "67" (six-seven)
If you landed here looking for the viral "six-seven" catchphrase that spread through schools and social media in 2025, the Morse spelling is the same as for any number: send the digit 6, pause three units, then send the digit 7. You could also spell it out as a word ("sixty seven" is ... .. -..- - -.-- / ... . ...- . -.), but digits are shorter and easier to decode. Whatever the phrase means to you, this is how to send it.

Ideas
Use "67" in real life
On a bracelet
Thread 7 small round beads for the dots and 3 long tube beads for the dashes, in this order: -.... --.... Add one spacer bead between letters, about 1 in total.
As a tattoo
10 signals is short enough for a wrist, a finger or behind the ear. Keep the dot-to-dash ratio at 1:3 so it stays readable.
In a message
Copy the code and drop it into a text, a note or a caption. The dots and dashes survive in any app. Anyone can read it with our Morse code decoder.
