Phon is based on the idea of numericizing text and strings. Phon translates one of four ways for each word/letter. All methods can be used in one phrase or sentence easily and allows the encryption to be much more advanced.
The first method (all lowercase letters) converts each individual letter or two-letter combination into one of 122 numbers. This is considered the default translation or encryption method.
The second method (capitalized the first letter of each word) converts all but the first letter of each word into the first method but applies a bankletter (A, B, C, or D) to replace the first number assigned to the first letter. Bank A contains single vowels, Bank B contains single consonants, Bank C contains double vowels, and Bank D contains double consonants.
The third method (capitalized all letters) only converts the first and last letters of each word into the second method (first letter) and converts the last letter into a braille-based add/subtract system. (long dot is 2, single dot is 1) and you would get a number between 01 and 07 or up to 14 for double letters.
The fourth method (capitalized first and last letters) is the most efficient form of encryption with Phon. It converts the first letter of the word into the second method, the middle letters into the first method, and the last letter into the second part of the third method (braille add/subtract system).
Example:
this is a message.
This Is A Message.
Changes into:
57470256 0256 00 51015656004601.
B470256 A56 a B015656004601.
If you are up for the challenge, try writing a message using only Phon. Good luck!
