How To Solve Cryptograms

Neato if u wanna have a private conversation with someone on the net...or if u wanted to send a secret message...well...cryptograms is a must for mystery lovers out there...note that several other cryptograms uses different type of encryption....this one is the common

Cryptograms are puzzles made by consistently substituting each letter (e.g. P) by another (e.g. C). They are usually quotations attributed to famous persons. Here is an example we shall try to solve:-

OH’P YSH HLBH O’Z BCKBOF HS FOA.

O NDPH FSY’H RBYH HS IA HLAKA RLAY OH LBMMAYP.

--- RSSFE BQQAY


There are a dozen rules (for cryptograms in English) we shall use:-

1. Single letter words are either "A" or "I".

2. A frequent 3-letter word is "THE". Note too, "HE" is a part of "THE".

3. If the penultimate character is an apostrophe, then the word is either a negated verb (like "DON’T" or "CAN’T" ) or the genitive form of a noun like "CAT’S TAIL" or "DOG’S PAW". Thus the letter behind the apostrophe is either a T or an S.

4. A question mark at the end implies that the first word is either WHO, WHAT, WHEN, WHERE, HOW or WHY.

5. Frequent consonant pairs are TH, WH, SH or CH.

6. Frequent word endings are "-TION", "-ENT", "-ANT", "-ING" "-ERS", "-ENS" and "-ED".

7. Short words to which "ING" or "ED" are appended, double up their last consonant. Examples "BEGINNING" or "HOPPED".

8. In 2 letter words one is a vowel.

9. If you are able to guess the author's name (usually given at the end), then that is a great help.

10. Certain word patterns are easy to guess, e.g. X??X is either THAT or ELSE or DEED etc. THAT and ELSE crop up frequently. And ??X?X is usually THERE or WHERE.

11. The pattern X’Y implies X=I and Y=M or Y=D ist. D usually crops up more often than M.

12. If in doubt, guess, and test your guess for consistency elsewhere in the cryptogram.

Using these 12 rules let's tackle the cryptogram puzzle given above:-

OH’P YSH HLBH O’Z BCKBOF HS FOA.



O NDPH FSY’H RBYH HS IA HLAKA RLAY OH LBMMAYP.

--- RSSFE BQQAY


Rule 3 tells us that "OH’P" is either "IT’S" or "HE’S".

Rule 1 tells us that the "O" at the start of line 2 must be an A or an I.

Both rules together imply O=I, H=T and P=S . Writing the known letters under the code, we get

IT’S ??T T??T I ? ????I? ?T ?I?

OH’P YSH HLBH O’Z BCKBOF HS FOA.

I ??ST ???'T ???T T? ?? T???? ???? IT ??????S

O NDPH FSY’H RBYH HS IA HLAKA RLAY OH LBMMAYP. ---

--- RSSFE BQQAY

Rule 10 tells us that word 3 is probably THAT. So let's substitute L=H and B=A.

IT’S ??T THAT I?? A??AI? T? ?I?

OH’P YSH HLBH O’Z BCKBOF HS FOA.

I T T A T T TH H IT HA

O NDPH FSY’H RBYH HS IA HLAKA RLAY OH LBMMAYP. --- A

--- RSSFE BQQAY

Rule 8 tells us that word 6 must be TO, because no other vowels fits. Rule 11 tells us that Z=M ( since Z occurs only once, it is more likely to be M than D). Rule 3 in word 3 of line 2 tells us that Y=N .

Using rule 10 we guess that the 7th word in the second line must be HLAKA=
THERE. Now we have:-

IT’S NOT THAT I'M A RAI TO IE.

OH’P YSH HLBH O’Z BCKBOF HS FOA.

I T ON'T ANT TO E THERE HEN IT HA EN

O NDPH FSY’H RBYH HS IA HLAKA RLAY OH LBMMAYP. -- OO A EN -- RSSFE BQQAY



Rule 8 tells us that in word 6 of line 2, we can write I=B. Words 4 and 8 of line 2 suggest that R=W . Thus line 2 now reads :-

I T ON'T WANT TO BE THERE WHEN IT HA EN

O NDPH FSY’H RBYH HS IA HLAKA RLAY OH LBMMAYP. -- WOO A E N -- RSSFE BQQAY

Now we use rule 9. A popular (american) first name is WOODY.

And a probable surname which would fit the pattern would be ALLEN .



So now we have:-

IT’S NOT THAT I'M A RAID TO DIE.

OH’P YSH HLBH O’Z BCKBOF HS FOA.

I T DON'T WANT TO BE THERE WHEN IT HA EN

O NDPH FSY’H RBYH HS IA HLAKA RLAY OH LBMMAYP. -- WOODY ALLEN -- RSSFE BQQAY

Rule 6 confirms that P=S because T has already been assigned.

Now we have :-

IT’S NOT THAT I'M A RAID TO DIE.

OH’P YSH HLBH O’Z BCKBOF HS FOA.

I ST DON'T WANT TO BE THERE WHEN IT HA ENS.

O NDPH FSY’H RBYH HS IA HLAKA RLAY OH LBMMAYP.-- WOODY ALLEN -- RSSFE BQQAY

Taking into account only those letters not yet assigned we now use rule 12 and get:-

IT’S NOT THAT I'M AFRAID TO DIE.

OH’P YSH HLBH O’Z BCKBOF HS FOA.

I JUST DON'T WANT TO BE THERE WHEN IT HAPPENS.

O NDPH FSY’H RBYH HS IA HLAKA RLAY OH LBMMAYP. -- WOODY ALLEN -- RSSFE BQQAY

Uncover: Enigma

5:25 AM, GMT+8, Sandakan, Sabah, Malaysia

As an individual who likes mysteries and anomalies alike, I decided to turn this place into such blog...as I felt the windy breeze from my windows I could swear something is watching over me..the cloud is still dark after the heavy downpour last night. For introduction, lets take a look a several anomalies incident in Sabah...In 2002 TV3 station managed to capture a footage of what looks like a flying coffin near the Kota Kinabalu International Airport...I still remember that footage being shown on the Buletin Utama. Im outta ideas actually for now but keep in touch for more spine tingling stories and anomalies that left you speechless and confused. If any of you wanted to share stories of anomalies across Sabah or Malaysia, please do so. I can hear the witching cry of the early bird...D.F.J...signing out..

Anime: Ikoku Meiro No Croisee

Gempakstarz review: 'Slow and steady storyline that can attract otaku's

Storyline: In the 19th century, Yune was brought to Paris to work at Enseignes du Roy, a worksmith shop managed by Claude. A typical story that discuss about the difference of culture and tradition...well it's a Shoujo genre but it's worth a shot...starts in July 2011 (Jp)

CG anime: Tekken Blood Vengeance

After much dissapointment from the lame holy-sh**-wood adaptation, Japan strikes back with it's CGI anime. Every character is said to speak in their own mother language (FYI this game have characters of different nationality)...kinda cool I guess...For me it's always weird how in anime even foreign people could suddenly speaks in Japanese, it's pretty illogical to me...brought to you by Namco Bandai Games, Digital frontier studio and directed by Yoshinari Mizushima. A few words from me, make that US adaptation look like a piece of ________(insert what u like here)



Wow...never thought blogging is seriously tiring if ur promoting something....ehem...unto the next catagories....

Movies:  Transformers: Dark of The moon

Hell yeah!! 20 July 1969...man first walked on the moon, but we're not the first to step our foot there....The proof? A mysterious Cybertronian spaceship. Now, the autobots have to find and uncover the secrets of it's existence b4 the final war against the Decepticon...



It says July first..but it's actually 29 June here in M'sia
Gamez: Shadows of The damned

Put Resident evil and combine it with Devil May Cry and you've got Residents may cry....no that would be weird....what I meant is Shadows of the damned, from famous v'game superstar Shinji Mikami(R.E 1-4) and Goichi Suda( No more heroes and Fatal Frame IV)..EA games brings this ass-kickin game about a hero wanting to save his girlfriend and....bla...bla...bla...got a little help from a skull demon....whatever....made by famous people....with a new style of game play this ARPG set to release in 21 June 2011...for 18+ gamers only due to blood and gores (but I play RE5 when I was 17....funny story huh...not??...then just shut up...)
