As we don’t need to find a keyword to break the cipher, we need to use something common in our lives to solve it. It’s something characteristic that you could find in every language.

This puzzle is tricky because you actually need to complete 3 steps to finish it. I’m guessing you have somehow combined steps 2 and 3 together. Look at the key you’ve obtained: What do you think the last step is?
