Solution to this Week's Puzzle

20220817 -- Promises

Reverse Transposition Cipher

 

In a reverse transposition cipher, the proverb is written backwards and then divided into groups of 3 or 4 letters.

 

TPEK RON EKOR BRE HTIE ERA SESI MOR PLLA

 

To solve the cipher, write the proverb beginning at the end.

ALLP ROM ISES ARE EITH ERB ROKE NOR KEPT

Then try regrouping the letters.  It may help to write the cipher as one line.

ALLPROMISESAREEITHERBROKENORKEPT

Some words in the cipher may jump out at you: All or promises

Some words may jump out that aren’t part of the cipher:  the or nor.

You just keep working the words and letters until something makes sense.

 

This week’s cipher is:

All promises are either broken or kept
