This is what it's like for an English person to read Scots: https://sco.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page

Sorry this might be OT, but I found it interesting that the 3rd result for you is the lyrics and for me it is something completely different (Lionel is just the tenth result). I thought Duckduckgo returns the same results for everyone and that the results are not personalized. Does someone know what kind of personalization does Duckduckgo use? In settings, region and language can be selected, but I have it set to 'Al…
It's probably just the region/language settings. Set region to Austria, and Ritchie is result nr 1. set Region to "All Regions" and he's result nr 10.

> Thing is though, Spud, whin yir intae skag, that's it. That's aw yuv goat tae worry aboot. Ken Billy, ma brar, likes? He's jist signed up tae go back intae the fuckin army. He's gaun tae fucking Belfast, the stupid cunt. Ah always knew that the fucker wis tapped. Fuckin imperialist lackey. Ken whit the daft cunt turned roond n sais tae us? He goes: Ah cannae fuckin stick civvy street. Bein in the army, it's like being a junky. The only difference is thit ye dinnae git shot at sae often bein a junky. Besides, it's usually you that does the shootin.

Good test! No this is one way: you know the obfuscated. What if you want to use it in the opposite direction? Let's call it the CIA/NSA direction, where you know what unobfuscated phrase you want to find, but not how someone may have obfuscated it. This is arguably much harder, especially if you do not store some sort of representation of the content "as sounds/phonemes".
The point is that if you are the CIA, searching through a bunch of obfuscated text, just like you are already (hopefully) already compensating for basic spelling errors, it apparently would not be very difficult to expand the scope of that same mechanism (in the same way that Duck Duck Go has) to support searching through and understanding this obfuscated text.

I've probably spoken with 3 or 4 Scots in my entire my entire life, and I've heard a few speak in various news/radio spots. Listening to a Scottish person speak really sounds like someone speaking English with a heavy accent. Seeing it written is nothing short of amazing.
Scots is a fellow-descendant from Middle English (alongside modern English), with some minor grammatical, and more substantial vocabulary divergence.
The upper bound for obfuscation is that the obfuscated text should still be readable by a human with minimal effort. To read, the average reader will looks for patterns like "replace j with the y sound." Once these patterns are determined, coding them into your NLP AI is trivial.

"The goal of the project is to make text hard to read for computers yet fairly easy to read for humans" What's the advantage to this?
