Magical Method __str__ giving me some problems

I'm having trouble with my code, please assist:

morse.py 
class Letter:
    def __init__(self, pattern=None):
        self.pattern = pattern

    def __str__(self):
        calling
        for item in self.pattern:
            if '.' in self.pattern:
                return 'dot'
            elif '_' in self.pattern:
                return 'dash'

        return '-'.join(self.pattern)


class S(Letter):
    pass

This look like the same issue as your previous question, see the anwers(s) posted there. Some of the hints already given still need to be incorporated in the code (the last one in particular).
