ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Perplexity

Perplexity is like a guessing game. You are trying to guess how something is put together by looking at how difficult it is to figure out. For example, if someone wrote a bunch of words in a messy order that you couldn't figure out, that would have a high perplexity. That means it would be very perplexing or difficult for you to understand.
