Ambiguous Spaces

Register or Login to view.I'm going to need the recommendation to use the Reference transliteration explaining: it doesn't indicate ambiguous spaces so the problem is invisible. But surely then the problem is only invisible to me, but still essentially present? The removed ambiguities are still there, but the resolution is no longer something I have to decide on?

I suppose, at least, it means that I don't need to consider the question. But I'm not sure how it's the better solution for anybody except me.

(Sorry if I have misunderstood.)

Yes, that's what I meant. The uncertainty remains.
Indeed, it is an even bigger uncertainty, as we cannot be sure that the Voynich words represent words in some plain text anyway.

One ideal situation is that the proper identification of spaces doesn't have a big impact.

That could lead to the second ideal situation where one:
1) removes all spaces,
2) Finds the solution
3) Reinstates the spaces where they belong according to this solution.
4) With full hindsight decides which original spaces were correct

So easily said....
