Comments
[edit]Since atbash is aleph and tav (at) and beth and shin (bash) combined, is the English form of it Azby? And the Greek form Amegabepsi? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dusty669211 (talk • contribs) 19:40, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

There is a simple way of writing a decoder for the Atbash
ABCDEFGHIJKLM ZYXWVUTSRQPON
To decode a letter, you merely look at the letter either above or below it. Just something that might fit into the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.35.219.101 (talk) 12:46, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
Purely Hebrew?
[edit]The lead section of the article states that 'Atbash is a simple substitution cipher for the Hebrew alphabet.' While the Atbash originally was a cipher for the Hebrew Alphabet, seeing as the cipher will work for any alphabet or script with a set order, and that the cipher is commonly used for casual encryption, should it be changed to reflect this?
