Quote:M. Hoffman: "A degree in science is essential to accept the frameshifts/syntax movements; although some pages do not follow that rule, which might be due to the fact that Voynich is written by at least four different authors, and all of them obtain a different style."
For those who are not familiar with this phrase, a frame shift (in genetics) refers to a mutation that alters an expected sequence. It can be either an insertion or deletion. If it occurs early in the sequencing process, the alteration may lead to greater discrepancies later in the sequence.

So how do we interpret the concept of a frame shift, as it is used in genetics, in relation to the VMS?
- To begin with, M. Hoffmann has posted a chart for a substitution code in the bottom right corner that relates each VMS glyph to one, two or three letters in Latin.
- This substitution code has then been used to transliterate the Voynich glyphs into syllables like re ur in rea, which is then interpreted to the German phrase for "Within the wound, the affected [part] burns."
This final and crucial step, where one goes from nonsense syllables to readable text, has not been illustrated. To enable others to understand and substantiate the method, the "frame shift" process needs to be demonstrated. Otherwise the solution is no different from anagram solutions, where liberties are taken with the letters to turn the text into something meaningful.
