Calgary engineer believes he's cracked the mysterious Voynich Manuscript

[nablator]

Have you ever tried translating a fragment of a Turkic text into Voynichese?

Too bad that the only test that would easily convince anyone who knows anything about the properties of Voynichese isn't possible, because the dialect isn't identified:

Our current conclusion is that the author’s dialect is a mixture of Anatolian, Azerbaijani, and Uzbek as it is congruent to all three. Another possibility is that the Turkish dialect used by the author is one of the dialects that are no longer employed / forgotten today.

Let me just point out that this hypothesis is non-falsifiable: there is no corpus to compare Voynichese with and any word that is not found in old dictionaries could be an abbreviation or a variant spelling or belong to a forgotten dialect.

Gerard Cheshire did the same thing with his proto-romance mixture.
