Is it written correctly?

The Homophonic cipher is a cipher where plaintext letters might be replaced by any of many different ciphertext letters.
The number of symbols each letter is recouped by is an element of the key, for example: the letter 'C' can be repossessed by any of different symbols depending on frequency, where the symbol 'Z' has less frequency and can be changed by fewer number of symbols.
One of the way to break this type of ciphers is to look at the symbol frequencies, perhaps historical reasons, the symbol 'E' is usually the most common letter in English. Let is say that the letter 'E' might be changed by any of different characters, so the most common letter is no longer may be taken, since this symbol is cover over symbols. The more alternatives for each letters we can get the more safer the cipher may be.

Thanks

The Homophonic C ipher is a cipher where plaintext letters might be replaced by any of many different ciphertext letters. The number of symbols each letter is recouped recovered by is an element of the ke y; for exampl e, the letter 'C' can be repossessed retrieved by any of different symbols depending on frequency, wher eas the symbol letter 'Z' has is less freque nt cy and can be changed by fewer number of symbols. One of the way to of break ing this type of ciph er is to look at the letter's frequenc y.
