geoffreycaveney's Judaeo-Greek theory

[ReneZ]

The substitutions in Geoffrey's chart are rational.

• For example, I do see substitutions like t/th/d (both hard d and soft d, as in thorn) quite frequently in manuscripts.
  
• Also, k and chi are frequently substituted.
  
• Likewise pi and beta, and not just in Greek, but in numerous languages (psi I'm less sure of).
  

It is one thing to say that these may be occasionally substituted in some languages, but it is quite another thing to freely substitute any of [tau, theta, delta]  by any of [Eva-k, Eva-s, Eva-sh]  and similar for the others.

And even with all this freedom, still every single word in the Greek line:

" ε[ι]πομ[εν]  μυθ[ου]ς  κα'-[ει]ρομ[εν]  ηθ[ο]ς  κα'-τοις  μ[υ]θοις  αυτοις  εχομ[εν]  εβδομ[ε]ς "

requires ad-hoc changes in order to get to:

" OpAm  miths  kOrAm  ithes  kOtis  mtheis  Oteis  OkhAm  hebdAms "
