Anyone like cryptograms? I may not be good at them, but it is one thing I can solve sometimes.
Try this one, and I warn, it is a usable word, and not wierd, but not as common as "I, we, he, she, it"...etc. Very Happy

(Word is 11 letters long--- each number stands for an alphabet letter. If the letter is the same in the word, then the number is the same.)

26-21-24-5-21-9-5-6-10-21-4

Verbal, do those spaces between the first three numbers signify anything?

CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP.

You did it. Wasn't hard , huh?

I guess you have noticed that when we try to line up a set of sentences (one under the other) you cannot do it except by filling blank spaces. That was the only reason for the dashes.
Good mac11

I will do another one later.

No, the repeated letters and your hint made it fairly easy! Very Happy

DIFFERENT CODE- - SAME PRINCIPLE

One number stands for the letter under it. Bust the code and you have the word. One letter hint! Word can be found in a2K, maybe a lot.

(no repeats in this one mc11)


10--5--8--18--15--20--1

_--_--_--_--_--_--_--L

Whole sentence
I will make a whole sentence with "the above word" using the same code throughout.


10--5--8--18--15--20--1

23--26--16--18--15--8

18--2--15--1--5--12--19

1--24--17--18--15--8

The four words OF THE SENTENCE are "one under the other" for the reason of them not lining up like "words' properly. Spacing is controlled in posting have you noticed!?!

(just to clarify- since I did not include it in the last post:)

Also, the clue is still good- L is the last letter of the first word, and each place the "L"'s clue appears (1)- the letter is also an L.

yes, mac

It is a short sentence with "the" imaginary-
and a similar sentence would read: 'birds fly overhead'
That could be 'imagined' "The birds always fly overhead!"

It is a short sentence like that.

new clue:


third word:

18---2---15---1---5---12---19

--------------------------d-----

(sixth letter is 12=d)

That was fun - though I guess I needed all those hints! There were just too many possibilities before.

(by the way mac11, it does not bother me that you only play-
I would welcome anyone, but their avatar is probably not as pretty as yours. I think you are probably pretty too Embarrassed )

I know that you are sure smart.
