Wow, he's absolutely certain the "solution" is correct? I didn't see a solution.
I saw a one-to-one substitution in which bits and pieces of Voynichese were interpreted into a dozen different languages and which were basically meaningless if you applied the same substitution to other parts of the manuscript. Even if you could wrestle a few words out of it, by looking through a dozen languages and finding something close and choosing that one, the text was still meaningless in the grammatical sense when several tokens were interpreted in sequence.
