[Article] Solved again...

[Emma May Smith]

The manuscript "has been deciphered", but "Cheshire hopes that fellow researchers will now use his findings to translate the entire Voynich manuscript."

As (almost) always, the decipherer leaves the deciphering to others.

It's reasonable for somebody to say that they have discovered how the script and the text works but aren't really qualified to translate it all. Translating a small section of the text might be enough to demonstrate validity if supported by a well reasoned solution.

This was basically the case with Ventris and Chadwick. Ventris knew enough Greek to determine the language of his solution and that it could make sense. Chadwick joined him to provide the professional knowledge needed to make the full translations.

Most medieval languages are relatively obscure. I doubt that anybody currently working on the Voynich text has the kind of in-depth knowledge needed to perfectly understand the resulting text.
