Quote:The Latin ALPHABET and Latin SCRIBAL CONVENTIONS, including abbreviations, ligatures, numbers, etc., are used in many languages (French, German, Latin, Czech, Italian, Spanish, English, Scandinavian, etc.) and these shapes and conventions are strongly evident in the shape of the VMS glyphs.

That's the matter of script, not the matter of language. How could Marcis and Kirchers think about Voynichese as something coptic or something, if the scribal conventions are that apparent?
