Best Answer

This question is written in the NATO Phonetic Alphabet. It's a code used by the military to relay coordinates over radio. Because letters could become garbled by static, the individual letters are turned into distinctive words.

The key to cracking this "code" is to take the first letter of each word, string the letters along, and add spaces. This phrase specifically says: "If you can understand this copy and p..." This phrase appeared on Facebook and LiveJournal in early January 2010. People were to copy and paste the entire sentence into their LJ or Facebook status to bewilder their friends.

The question - due to constraints on the 200 characters that you can use in a question on this site - should read as the following:

India Foxtrot Yankee Oscar Uniform Charlie Alpha November Uniform November Delta Echo Romeo Sierra Tango Alpha November Delta Tango Hotel India Sierra, Charlie Oscar Papa Yankee Alpha November Delta Papa Alpha Sierra Tango Echo Tango Oscar Yankee Oscar Uniform Romeo Sierra Tango Alpha Tango Uniform Sierra

Taking the first letter of each of the words above, the sentence translates into this: "IF YOU CAN UNDERSTAND THIS, COPY AND PASTE TO YOUR STATUS."
