But still every word is acceptable by Whitaker's dictionary algorithm (I don't say Whitaker's dictionary, because now I use only his source files and his approach, but the program itself was rewritten). Except for:Ok. Let us assume that this is a special form of Latin. Anyway, basic forms of words (as you say) must be translatable and be translated correctly. For example, you translate your interpretation of the part of the f3r: "Patrationellurum paraboli cupitorura copium apicorum comanus" as "Want to fill with points leaves of finished drawings". Nothwithstanding that I see here only two correct Latin words, I can just imagine that "patrationellurum" is "patratione[llurum]" (with fulfilment), "cupitorura" - "cupit[or]ura" (one (feminine) who desires to), "apicorum" - "apicarum" (of sheeps (some kind)) or "apiacorum" (of those similar to celery), "comanus" - "coman[u]s (bushy), but I have no idea, how you've got your translation. Actually, it is something like: "With fulfilment of a brave man that (she) who desires [something] of a short sabre of sheeps/ something similar to celery".
a) words are allowed to jump to other declensions, conjugations, genders (which is common for medieval times)
b) one base form of word is used to produce derivations (typically 2nd form)
c) words of 3rd noun declensions, which IMHO are special
