How could we approach the Pharma and Recipes?
#13
Many questions have accumulated there once again.
Actually I was looking for a clue where I have seen before, but haven't found it yet.
Thereby I found an interesting book and started reading. It deals with the obstetrics and nursing of babies from 1450, which is the reason why I continue reading.

1. the prescription from today's point of view has most of the information like weight or mass. These are rather rare to read.
One should see it rather as a treatment method.
It is determined what it is, and then what needs to be done.
It is actually always the same, but sometimes there are names of plants, "so take this and mix it with wine or vinegar, so you should drink it for XX days, so you should .............

2. I need to know how it could be written.
Example: In German "so sollte man" is written in Alemanic " so söt mer / so sötmer".
So it is actually funny for me when computer specialists feed their PC with today's dictionaries, when they should actually use an idioticom.
That leads me also directly to ....

3. one
Solving encryption if I don't know the language is almost unlikely. But how can I do that even if there is no dictionary.
I am almost certain, simple encryption with a spoken dialect form.

4. if I assume that the author possibly speaks German, and wants to convert this into a Latin, he does not even need a lot of Latin words with the help of German medical books. Without technical terms 200-300 words should be enough.

This is how I see it.
