So, even if any person does not translate it as like as same our translation, he/she will have approved our claim about that VMS written in Turkish language. In this case, can I say that you have accepted the Turkish content of VMS?

Dear Ahmet

I think you miss that people are exploring your hypothesis that the manuscript is written in old Turkish and what the logical consequences of your hypothesis are. That doesn't mean that they necessarily agree with your hypothesis just that to analyse that hypothesis they have to consider the implication of it being true.

I would argue that the methodology you apply could also be applied to many languages as other flawed theories are. When you give individual words many interpretations then it is easy to find an interpretation that appears to fit. This is just the same as Gerard Cheshire's theory.

Proving any Voynich translation theory is wrong is hard, the onus is on you to prove it is correct. It is true that people can demonstrate that an argument presented to show that the theory is correct, is flawed. Prove Gerard Cheshire's theory is wrong or the Hannig theory or the many other theories. The problem with these theories is that the arguments presented that they are correct are weak.

Dear Mark,

We think in much the same way, and of course, discussions can be continued on the ideas with which we differ, through mutual specific examples.

But as far as linguistics is concerned, I must say that in such cases the main confirmatory mathematical probability calculus itself. 

If you read up to 600 agglutinative words with using alphabet transcription of 24 simple alphabet characters (+ 90 syllable characters) by using them to translate some whole pages in semantic integrity in large number of sentences, it is no longer necessary to verify that theory by any linguist. 

However, there are linguists who have already approved our thesis. For some another linguists, understanding these issues may be take some time. Which is understandable. And of course we are in no hurry. We do this job to make use of our free time in fun. 

Thank you,
