What Is Binary Code?
Binary code is a language used in computers. It's based on the binary number system, which uses just two symbols (0 and 1) to represent text, ASCII code, and Unicode characters.
What Is the Binary Translator?
This English to Binary Translator is an online text converter that instantly converts text to binary code and vice versa. The translator also handles decimal, hexadecimal, and octal formats.
Unlike simple text translator tools that only handle basic English letters, our binary translation tool supports
- Standard ASCII numbers and characters (0-127)
- Extended ASCII characters (128-255)
- Unicode characters including emojis, symbols, and international scripts
- Multi-byte character encoding for languages like Turkish, Arabic, Chinese, and more
How to Use the Binary Code Translator
The tool converts input automatically as you type or paste. It works with any valid binary sequence, including multi-byte Unicode.
To convert text to binary:
- Type or paste your text in the first box.
- The binary translation instantly appears in the second box. Each character is converted to its binary equivalent with spaces between bytes.
To convert binary to text:
- Enter a binary number (example: 01001000 01101001) in the input box.
- The text converter automatically decodes it back to readable text.
How Do You Say Hello in the Binary Number System?
"Hello" in binary code is 01001000 01100101 01101100 01101100 01101111.
How Does Text Convert to Binary?
There are three stages:
- Convert text to characters: "Hello" becomes five separate characters: H, e, l, l, o.
- Convert the characters to numbers in hexadecimal: A common encoding is Unicode / UTF-8, where "Hello" becomes 48, 65, 6C, 6C, 6F.
- Convert hexadecimal to binary: Each character (hex code) becomes one or more binary bytes: 01001000 01100101 01101100 01101100 01101111.
