The incompatibility of Voynichese with natural human language
#16
[quote="Aga Tentakulus" pid='35322' dateline='1583837654']
It becomes really interesting when a German speaker needs an interpreter for German.
We in Zurich speak a lot with ( cha, che, cho, chi, chu ).
In the example the alphabet does not even contain ( C ). But it is the same language.
How do I want to judge something if I decipher it, if I don't understand it, even if I am right.
Now I am still in the 1400 century.
Who understands it, even if it is not encrypted.

@Helmut Winkler,
It falls into your dialect area (Bavarian). Do you understand it ? I stand at my limits.

I am Bavarian, but my own dialect is Franconian, which is Mitteldeutsch, not Oberdeutsch  as Bavarian and the dialect from the Zillertal. I understand most of it, some of the vocabulary is strange, it is like Austrian, which has the same grammar as Hochdeutsch, but some different vocabulary, but there is nothing I don't understand, Karfiol is Blumenkohl and Paradeiser Tomaten. I have much more difficulties with Alemannic and North German dialects. Just to mention it, when I was in England, I had not much difficulties with the North countty dialects, which the Southern Brits had difficulties to understand. I think it depends much on how the single areas are related and in contact with one another Bavarians usually have more contact with Austrians than with North Germans
