Frequently asked questions
- When does the daily cryptogram change?
- Every day at midnight Eastern Time (New York). Everyone gets the same quotation with the same letter swap on the same day.
- Where do the quotations come from?
- From books and plays first published before 1928, so they are in the public domain in the United States. Each one was checked word for word against a public domain edition, and the solution shows the author, the work and the year.
- Can a letter stand for itself?
- No. In every daily cryptogram each letter is swapped for a different letter, and the swap stays the same through the whole quotation.
- How do I get started?
- Look for one-letter words (usually A or I), short words such as THE and AND, and apostrophes: a letter after an apostrophe is often S or T. Our cryptogram guide walks through these steps with examples.
