What is the Full form of SOS?
SOS stands for Save Our Souls. It is also known as Save Our Ship. It is a Morse code that is used as a distress code to indicate danger. The code indicates that a person is in danger and needs immediate help.
The SOS distress code is a sequence of three dots, three dashes, and three dots with no spaces. In the International Morse Code, three dots represent the letter S and three dashes represent the letter O.
The code was historically used by ships to signal danger later and was associated with "Save Our Ship". or? Save our souls? remember the correct letters (SOS) of the code. So actually SOS doesn't represent anything.
