    The sentence I got was:
    STUDY BECAUSE ADAPT I GOOD AFTER PIZZA ANTHROPOLOGY FROM.
    I'm really not sure what went wrong. I think there might have been a misunderstanding in either the reverse translation of the words or in the directions of the assignment.
    The only other way I could have come to this conclusion is if I decoded it wrong. I triple checked to see if I made any mistakes and I could not find any. It could be that I am just doing the translating wrong and just don't know it, although I hope that is not the case. I know this was an extremely complex assignment! Let me know your take on all of this.

  2. Daryl, I might have gotten it wrong. Try this one.. it's the same sentence but maybe in the way I present it again, might make better sense. Sorry about that!
