what tells you that the letters match wrong ?
The letters are mapped wrong because letters in natural languages move around within words. For example, the letter "a" can be in any position in a word.
This does not happen in Voynichese. Certain glyphs are at the beginning, certain glyphs are at the end, and certain glyphs are in the middle. There are also patterns that persist from one VMS token to the next.
Take your bottom example... look at the letter "a". Notice that it moves around and that its "next neighbor" (the glyph immediately before or after) can be a number of different glyphs. This kind of movement within a token occurs to a much lesser degree in Voynichese.
I've searched languages all over the globe and I can't find any that are structured like this. Even syllabic languages are more flexible in their placement of letters than Voynichese glyphs.
