Is it possible to do a word-by-word substitution of the Voynich MS and come up with a meaningful text?

I see more reasons why the answer should be "no"  rather than "yes".

Good question.
If I want to define words, then I need the context. But I need words for the context.
Where and how do I break the vicious circle?

From everything that I have seen, just deleting or adding word spaces, without any other changes,
does not really change things in any significant way.

I would be very interested to hear from people (confirming or contradicting) who have any insight in
this.

For example, the old problem that the Voynich MS text does not really have any repeating sequences
of text, is not caused by incorrect word spaces, and cannot be fixed by adding or deleting word spaces.
