cypher

noun (cyphers); also spelt cipher

«cypher» in the English dictionary: everyday and in Jewish tradition — its meanings, how the lessons use it, and examples, each with its tree on Mova.

Everyday

  1. A person of no importance, a nobody. tree →
  2. A secret code, or the sign for the figure 0. tree →

In the lessons

in tales, a boy who thinks a friend is a cypher means that friend is a nobody

Examples

  • Don't call him a cypher; he is clever. tree →
  • The cypher message took an hour to read. tree →
  • We wrote the number zero as a cypher. tree →

Note

The figure 0 is called a cypher (or cipher); it stands for nothing, so 5 becomes 50 when a cypher is written after it.

In Jewish tradition

in tales, a boy who thinks a friend is a cypher means that friend is a nobody

Note

The figure 0 is called a cypher (or cipher); it stands for nothing, so 5 becomes 50 when a cypher is written after it.
