The alphabet is divided into a limited number of groups, and each group contains its letters in sequence. - (Avengers of Gor, Chapter 4, Sentence #35)

Most commonly, cyphers are involved, as opposed to signals for words or commands, such as 'enemy sighted', 'prepare for battle', 'convene', 'withdraw', 'return to port', and such. The cyphers, substitution cyphers naturally, are correlated, in one way or another, with letters in the Gorean alphabet, a long beat followed by two short beats, say, standing for a given letter, and so on. In some signaling, visual, utilizing flags, pennons, lanterns, torches, or such, and auditory, utilizing a drum, trumpet, or such, a different arrangement is used, which is generally thought to be easier to read, particularly by unsophisticated readers. The alphabet is divided into a limited number of groups, and each group contains its letters in sequence. Let us suppose that we take the twenty-five most common letters in the Gorean alphabet and divide them into five group of five letters each. Then, for example, sounding two beats or lifting the torch twice would indicate the second group. Then, say, there are four beats or the torch is lifted four times. - (Avengers of Gor)
