In International Morse Code, the underscore (_) is written as ..--.-, made up of 3 dots and 3 dashs. Punctuation codes run five to six signals long — longer than most letters — since they're used far less often in typical text.
The underscore is typically used when standing in for a blank space to be filled in.
