[Article] The Emergence of a Possible Coded Vocabulary After the Application of an Algorithm

[Pardis Motiee]

Many thanks for this clarification. Indeed, we don't need to use the v101 transliteration; we can map directly from the glyphs to Persian letters, as per the proposed mapping. That would be a manual task. The advantage of using v101 as an intermediate step is that the v101 glyphs are available in Unicode, as are the Persian letters. Therefore, using the find-and-replace function in Microsoft Word or Excel, it's a half-hour's work to apply the proposed mapping to a line, a paragraph, a page or even the whole Voynich manuscript.


I attempted to apply the proposed mapping, followed by rules 1 and 2, to page You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. line 1. I used Unicode symbols for some of the phonetic strings, to allow the find-and-replace function to work, as follows:

• all upper case mapped to lower case
  
• A' mapped to á
  
• T' mapped to ť
  
• T" mapped to ŧ
  

This yielded the following result:


I noted your interpretation (Step 3) and copied it into Google Translate, with the following result:


I would like to invite the comments of this forum on the extent to which Step 3 is arbitrary.

Google-translate is translating حوادث correctly, but other words require dictionary search. There is no verb "to be" in these two noun phrases. I like to explain that some crazy things are happening:
Two phrases are almost in one meaning:
(You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.) translates to increase and growth, (You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.) means growth, mostly used for growth of plants as (نبات) defines for plant itself (dictionary results from abadis.ir are linked, you can enable google translate in browser so it will translate the definitions to some degree)
(You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.) means incidents in negative form, (You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.) means incident in almost the same meaning.

So we have "growth of incident growth of incidents "
