garble
This term describes a specific type of distortion where the original components of a message remain present but are rearranged or corrupted into a chaotic state. It carries a connotation of technical failure or mental confusion, suggesting that the output is a fragmented version of a coherent input.
In communication contexts, it often refers to the auditory interference of radio or telephone signals. When applied to narratives or facts, it implies a lack of clarity caused by poor organization or agitation, rather than a deliberate attempt to deceive.
