Text Translators & Alphabets – Codes, Ciphers & Writing Systems

Convert text into another writing system or code β€” Morse, binary, braille, runes, Roman numerals, NATO spelling, ciphers and faux alphabets.

These tools change what the text says, not just how it looks. Morse code, binary, braille and the A1Z26 cipher encode your letters into another representation that can be decoded back. Runes, Greek-look and Japanese-look alphabets substitute characters that resemble Latin letters without carrying their meaning. Both kinds are useful, but only the first is reversible.

Everything runs in your browser, which matters for the cipher tools: nothing you type is sent anywhere. The ciphers here are historical and educational, so they are not suitable for protecting anything real.

Encoders Versus Look-Alike Alphabets

The distinction decides whether the result can be read back.

  • True encodings, reversible: Morse, binary and hex, braille, Roman numerals, NATO spelling, A1Z26, Caesar and ROT13
  • Look-alike substitutions, not real translations: Greek-style, Russian-style, Japanese-style and rune generators
  • Language-style tools: Pig Latin transforms real English words by rule

A Note on the Cipher Tools

Caesar shifts, ROT13 and Atbash were broken centuries ago and are trivial to reverse. They belong in puzzles, games, spoiler tags and teaching, not in protecting information. The pages say so plainly. Because everything is computed locally in your browser, your text never leaves your device either way.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I decode as well as encode?

The reversible tools such as binary, Roman numerals and the ciphers include a decode direction.

Are the rune and Greek tools real translations?

No. They swap in characters that look similar; the words do not carry over.

Is the Caesar cipher secure?

Not at all. It is a puzzle and teaching tool, nothing more.

Does my text get uploaded?

No. Every conversion runs in your browser.

Is it free?

Yes.
