According to Merriam-Webster dictionary, indecipherable is defined as incapable of being deciphered. While I was reading “Brave We Are” by Tahira Naqvi the word appears on the first page in the fifth paragraph as stated, “He slides against the kitchen counter and hums, his fingers beating an indecipherable rhythm on the Formica”. At first glance I thought it meant knowledgeable. Now knowing what the word means, I can understand what the passage means in better detail. The hums and the fingers beating created this unrecognizable rhythm to the listener.
