Ruby's Greek Thread

[Juan_Sali]

The words daiin and aiin are among the most frequent in the manuscript.

What do you think? Is there a lot of daiin and aiin following the fairly short spaces?

In my opinion aiin is a unique glyph, the latin m written in a flourish way on its starting and end. I dont think that my opinion will help you as you work with a larger set of glyphs than me (mine is only 14).

Perhaps you should consider that such signs were already used in old books.

See, for example, the NSA report.

The best thing, however, will be for you to read through the various comments here at Ninja.

Have you tried to understand a few words?

Thank you for this hint. Did you manage to apply them to understand some words?

[Aga Tentakulus]

With the template shown, no. No significant match.

But there are indications that something similar is being used with a different meaning.

I have posted this before and I do it again now, even if it is not likely to have any effect

daiin and aiin are not daiin and aiin, but d'aui and aui with a florish each as an abbr. stroke and means "dicit Auicenna" and "Avienna". It is so common an abbr. that even Cappelli has it,who has not many medical abbr.

Whih by the way is good evidence that we have a plaintext in Latin and explains e.g. the many repetitions

[Ruby Novacna]

daiin and aiin ...an abbr. stroke and means "dicit Auicenna" and "Avienna"

This is a good idea!  And, in your opinion, can we predict what the words before or after these aui and daui mean?

Have you published your Latin translation results?

... can we predict what the words before or after these aui and daui mean?

I think we can say what chapters he is quoting and possibly some other authors and texts he is quoting as well


Have you published your Latin translation results?


No. my results are too full of holes yet, but I am thinking of putting up a blog or web site in the near future

I hope that this future will be near enough, so that I can get to know your results.

P.S. To start a blog it takes 15 min
