I Can Read the Voynich MS

[Linda]

It's a sad story filled with the regrets of a young man named 'Poar' (pronounced "Far"; I believe).  It is Poar's account of his crimes against many of the pregnant woman in his homeland and his subsequent banishment from his homeland for these crimes.  This account tells of Poar's entire geneology, and about how Poar has brought great reproach on that lineage because of his crimes and his banishment that ultimately led to Poar's death, far away from his people.

Hi Rebekah, welcome to the forum. Quite a few people have stated they think Hebrew is involved so I am open to that possibility.

I am having a problem with the above since if it is Poar writing the story, how does he tell the story of his own death?
Or are you saying it is written by someone else as though it was a story written by Poar? What is the time and place of the story in your opinion?

Could you give us some examples of pages and their topics, ie does the entire manuscript tell the Poar story? If the story is about pregnant women i can see you getting this from quire 13 and the zodiac, but what about the other circles, plants and text-only pages? Can you read them also?

I have a problem with your saying you can read it, but not translate it, as well. Can you read it aloud? Or do you mean you get the gist of it from the pictures and the look of a word here and there? 

But I do know for a fact that the words in the Green Diamond on the bottom left corner of the Map are in fact the Compass Rose directional notations for: North, South, East & West. 

If it is the diamond noted above, how does that correlate with modern Hebrew? (I have no experience with Hebrew)

Hebrew translation: North = tzafon, South = darom, East = mizrakh, West = ma'arav.

Or does it have to do with forward, back, left and right? With forward being east?  You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.

Or maybe (morning) sun, desert, sea, mountains  ( seems a bit like like fire air water earth?)

 “north” צָפֹנָה (pronounced as tsafonah), “south” נֶגְבָּה (negbah), “east” קֵדְמָה (kedmah) and “west” יָמָּה (yamah).

These examples from a quick google search don't seem to match so i don't know which words you mean, can you clarify? I assume you mean Hebrew alphabet representations thereof. But as yet i see no correlations to voynichese. Can you be specific? There is voynichese font in the message tools but it is not working for me or i would put the four words i think you are talking about here to await the Hebrew equivalents.

Sorry for so many questions but i want to understand what you are saying. As has been mentioned, many people claim to read the manuscript, but the lack of ability to translate leaves many of us skeptical, so the more you can tell us the better we can understand you.
