Morse code for non-Latin alphabets

The Greek Morse code alphabet is very similar to the Latin alphabet. It uses one extra letter for Greek letter Χ and no longer uses the codes for Latin letters "J", "U" and "V".

The tonos is not transmitted in Morse code; the receiver can simply infer which vowels require one. The Greek diphthongs presented in the bottom three rows of the table are specified in old Greek Morse-code tables but they are never used in actual communication, the two vowels being sent separately.

Cyrillic letters are represented using the representation of similar-sounding Latin letters (e.g. Б ⇒ B, В ⇒ W [German pronunciation], Г ⇒ G, Д ⇒ D, etc.). Cyrillic letters with no such Latin correspondence are assigned to Latin letters with no Cyrillic correspondence (e.g. Щ⇒Q). The same correspondence was later used to create Russian national character sets KOI-7 and KOI-8.

The order and encoding shown uses the Russian national standard. The Bulgarian standard is the same except for the two letters (Ь, Ъ) given in parentheses: The Bulgarian language does not use Ы, while Ъ is frequent, but missing in Russian standard Morse.

The letter Ё (Yo) does not have an international Morse phonetic equivalent, with international Е used instead. Ukrainian Morse uses Є instead of Э, І instead of И, but also has И encoded as Ы, and has additional Ї (Yi).

Hebrew letters are mostly represented using the Morse representation of a similar-sounding Latin letter (e.g. "Bet" ב≡B); however the representation for several letters are from a Latin letter with a similar shape (e.g. "Tet" ט ≡U, while "Tav" ת≡T). Though Hebrew Morse code is transcribed from right to left, the table below is transcribed from left to right as per the Latin letters in the table.

Devanagari is a left-to-right abugida (alphasyllabary) widely used in the Indian subcontinent. The following telegraph code table is adapted from one given by Ashok Kelkar,[2] where the Latin letters are encoded as per the International Morse code standard. Some variations on this code exist,[3] and there have been some attempts to introduce other telegraph codes either to improve efficiency or to apply to more Indian languages.[2][4][5] Proposals for a telegraph code suitable for multiple Indian languages have been made as early as 1948, shortly after independence.[6]
