Here, this is German.
RE: Daiin and aiin, to be read separately or as part of a word? - Aga Tentakulus - 27-04-2022
The text begins with "darinnen holz zu schlagen damit der selbe Forst" "to cut wood in it so that the same forest".
Anyone who knows German should be able to read it. It is rather the handwriting that causes problems.

Is it voynich?
RE: Daiin and aiin, to be read separately or as part of a word? - Aga Tentakulus - 27-04-2022
Sarcastic.....Yes, definitely.
Is this a joke?
Of course not, nothing to do with VM at all.

I think we have a mess now.
There is German text in the VM.
Here is a text where there is also German. But I did not put this one. I only wrote that I understand the text here.
The German text in the VM is similar in dialect to what you have read here. But one has nothing to do with the other.

Yes, it is the handwriting that adds to the difficulty. I can follow your transcription to 'Vergangenheit', then I don't see a second letter "g" in the proper relationship to form the syllable "gang".
I've seen worse. I can't read them, but I've seen them.

I am sorry if I created a mess. The only reason I publish that sample writing was to show that minims can be read if the person understands the language. That text has nothing to do with the VM. It is a letter about some land deal in Slovenia, written in German in the mid-15th century. The writing is in not representative, because other manuscripts show a lot more similarity in letter shapes and in writing style. However, the text shows that reading handwriting is not that easy.

I am interested in translations into different languages, I think the botanical part contains Slavic words.
