You might say, get Slovenian linguists, but those whose opinion counts most don't want to invest their time to give me an opinion; they urge me to get a peer review from the Voynich community first. After all, they would have to learn a lot about the Voynich Manuscript, and about the Slovenian language between 10th and 15th century, because there is no material for comparison. And since so many theories written by various academics were rejected, I do not blame them to be careful.
I had not been able to find any member of the Voynich Community that would be interested to review my Slovenian theory, although most members of the Voynich Community believe the VM was created in the region of Carinthia, Tyrol or Veneto, where Slovenian was widely spoken in the Middle Ages.
I suppose if I self-publish, or if I get a publishing company to publish, my theory would be rejected on account of not having peer review.
Can you please help me with this dilema.
