Challenging Cryptogram today.

10 minutes is good
5 minutes is an excellent score today
2 minutes superior

Don’t forget the contest on the 6th.

Guessed the first two words correctly which gave spelling hints to some words.

Struggle.
Went to plan D

Experimented with suffix on word eight.
Got the wrong suffix, but my guess was close enough to open the rest of the answer

Not easy. Guessed around on the small words until I finally got it…

Somewhere under two minutes. Letter frequency tells you 2nd word (grammar) which then tells you 1st word.

You now have 1st letter and I think one other letter of 4th word. How many words begin with that letter? Then, the last word before the comma, you now have its 1st letter. Look at the letter pattern. After that, off to the races.
