What's the difference between decipher and polygraphy?
Decipher
Definition:
(v. t.) To translate from secret characters or ciphers into intelligible terms; as, to decipher a letter written in secret characters.
(v. t.) To find out, so as to be able to make known the meaning of; to make out or read, as words badly written or partly obliterated; to detect; to reveal; to unfold.
(v. t.) To stamp; to detect; to discover.
