Assuming that ZUF'Y is "isn't", and it's a monoalphabetic cipher, that gives "t_s__ __s __s_ isn't t___, t_s__ __s t___ isn't __s_."

It's reasonable to illustrate basic cryptanalysis first with monoalphabetic substitution frequency analysis, and maybe the index of coincidence to get the number of polyalphabets, but things like differential cryptanalysis is its own advanced topic.

So the code is nothing fancy: It’s a simple one-to-one, monoalphabetic substitution cypher.
