convert data into coded form
To change information into a secret code so that only people with the right key or password can read it.
Használati minta:
to encrypt [data/file/message] (with [a key/password])
Gyakori hiba:
Learners sometimes confuse "encrypt" with "encode". "Encode" can mean any change of format (for example, encoding video), but "encrypt" almost always means making information secret and safe. Another common mistake is using the wrong preposition: say "encrypt the file with a password" or "encrypt data using a key", not "encrypt the file by a password" in most standard usage.
Szinonimák
encode (General term for changing information into a different form; it is not always for security, while encrypt usually is.)
|
cipher (A more specialized or old-fashioned term used in cryptography; often sounds more technical or literary than encrypt.)
|
scramble (Informal word suggesting the data is mixed up and unreadable; less precise and less technical than encrypt.)
Antonimák
decrypt (To change encrypted data back to its original readable form, which is the direct opposite process of encrypt.)
|
decode (To turn coded information back into normal form; broader than decrypt but often used as its opposite in everyday language.)

make meaning hard to understand
To say or write something in a way that hides the real meaning, often by using difficult or special words.
Használati minta:
to encrypt [meaning/message/ideas] (in [language/jargon/speech])
Gyakori hiba:
Learners may not realize this is a figurative, less common use based on the technical meaning. It is usually used about language, ideas, or messages, not about physical objects. Do not use it when you simply mean "to make something a little hard"; it suggests a strong or deliberate hiding of meaning.
Szinonimák
obscure (Focuses on making the meaning unclear or hard to see; slightly more common in this figurative use than encrypt.)
|
veil (Emphasizes covering or partly hiding the real meaning, often with a deliberate, careful feeling.)
|
cloud (Suggests making something less clear or more confusing, without the strong technical flavour of encrypt.)
Antonimák
clarify (Means to make the meaning clearer and easier to understand, which is the opposite of encrypting it in complex language.)
|
explain (Stresses making ideas plain and understandable, the reverse of hiding them in difficult or coded language.)
