To what extent should the translation respect the grammar?
#20
The worries about grammar that are often expressed around VM translations are different though.

If someone were to translate the VM and the grammar wasn't perfect, that would be fine. The problem is this: when a VM theorists are criticized about grammar, it is because the "translators" themselves disregard grammar. I bet that there are several people who have proposed a Voynich Latin solution but don't even know what a case is. This is the problem, not the supposition that the VM or any manuscript may contain grammatical oddities.
