morse code distress signal. three dits … three dahs _ _ _, three dits … developed first by the germans, it’s used over the radio to signal that you need help
SOS stands for save our souls or save our ship, it has a few things that it stands for but it basically means “help me/us” haha
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SOS has the background and stuff about it
SOS is the commonly used description for the International Morse code distress signal (· · · — — — · · ·). This distress signal was first adopted by the German government in radio regulations effective April 1, 1905, and became the worldwide standard when it was included in the second International Radiotelegraphic Convention, which was signed on November 3, 1906, and became effective on July 1, 1908.
In popular usage, SOS became associated with phrases such as “Save Our Souls,” “Shoot Our Ship”, “Sinking Our Ship”, “Survivors On Shore”, “Save Our Ship”, “Sink Our Ships”, “Survivors On Ship”, “Save Our Sailors”, “Stop Other Signals”, “Sink Or Swim”, “Send Out Sailors”, “Save Our Skins”, and “Send Out Someone”.
