Page 42v, line 7, word3, 'hgfqr' Hqpah = freezing + gr = stranger in a foreign land / inhabit. but again this language is not like any other. I welcome you to look at the letter exchange and see if you can figure out which language uses less 'g''s than another. In the meantime, I will continue translations and post. When someone else finds a better translation, the more power to them. If they find i did something wrong and can correct, fantastic as we will all gain more knowledge. Since i cannot look at the past of languages i digress to you as the expert to look at, in the meantime, I'll continue doing what i do best, and translate.(03-05-2019, 11:37 PM)Monica Yokubinas wrote: You are not allowed to view links.

Yes, I am asking you to explain one letter and its usage because if THIS particular letter doesn't show up in the manuscript as one would expect it to, regargless of the language, then there is something wrong with the method.
The letter g is frequent in MOST western and middle eastern languages, so you can't just look past it, you have to deal with it.
Wouldn't it be better to find if there are flaws in the method and CORRECT them rather than going on and on for months or years mis-translating it?
