Unscrambled

Unscrambled is a term used to describe a situation or puzzle that has been resolved or put into its correct order. This can apply to a wide range of contexts, from literal physical arrangements to abstract problems.

In the context of puzzles, unscrambled refers to a jumbled set of letters, words, or objects that has been rearranged to form a coherent and understandable whole. For example, an anagram puzzle is unscrambled when the letters are put back into their original word formation. Similarly, a jigsaw puzzle is unscrambled when all the pieces are fitted together to reveal the complete picture.

Beyond puzzles, unscrambled can also describe a situation that has been clarified or simplified. If a complex problem is explained in a way that makes it easy to understand, it can be said to have been "unscrambled." Likewise, if confusing instructions are rewritten for clarity, they have been unscrambled. The core idea is moving from a state of confusion, disarray, or disorder to one of order, understanding, or resolution. The word implies a process of untangling or deciphering something that was previously obscured or mixed up.
