Essentially you turn your user to be an LLM for a nonsense language. You train them by having them read nonsense text.

Did you forget the word "teach"? Or even the concept?

I am well aware of learning, but people tend to learn by comprehension and understanding. Completing phrases without understanding the language (or the concept of language) is the realm of LLM and Scrabble players.

"In 2015, despite not speaking French, Richards won the French World Scrabble Championships, after reportedly spending nine weeks studying the French dictionary. He won it again in 2018, and multiple duplicate titles from 2016."
