To communicate using Morse Code, you'd use Morse code. Morse code is a simple code that assigns a unique sequence of two different signals to each letter of the alphabet. The two different signals are typically the same type of signal with different lengths; i.e. a short and a longer flash of light, or a short and a longer sound, etc.
Morse code is noted in a dot-dash style, thus referring to the different duration of the transmitted signals. For example, a single short followed by a single long signal describes the letter A. Other letters have other unique sequences, allowing entire messages to be spelled out with a series of short and long flashes, or sounds, or whatever else suitable.
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morse_code for more details.
Also, search YouTube.com for 'Morse code' to get a visual demonstration which may help to make more sense.

In relatively recent years, digital devices were developed to read Morse. But that happened just as Morse was 'on the way out'. The vast majority of individuals who 'read' Morse have memorized the sounds of the codes for letters, digits, and punctuations, and translate it as they hear it, just like any other foreign language.
This is a code listening tool. Print it on your printer.
Place your pencil where it says START and listen to Morse code.
Move down and to the right every time you hear a DIT (a dot).
Move down and to the left every time you hear a DAH (a dash).
Here's an example: You hear DAH DIT DIT which is a dash then dot then dot.
You start at START and hear a DAH then move down and left to the T and then you hear a DIT so you move down and RIGHT to the N and then you hear another DIT so you move DOWN and RIGHT again and land on the D
You then write down the letter D on your code copy paper and jump back to START waiting for your next letter.
The key to learning the code is hearing it and comprehending it while you hear it.
The only way to get there is to practice 10 minutes a day.
Listen to code tapes or computer practice code while tracing out this chart and you will find yourself writing down the letters in no time at all without the aid of the chart.
The chart brings repetition together with recognition, which you don't get from any other type of code practice aid.
