If you speak Navajo it is a very simple substitution code. They spelled things out in English, chose a English word or two for each letter, translated that word into Navajo and then used that. For example the letter C. Cat stands for C and Navajo for cat is Mósí . Sheep stands for S, sheep in Navajo is Dibé. Bear is for B and bear in Navajo is Shash. They also used word for types of birds for types of planes and fish for boats etc.
