Well, if we approach Voynich text on a word level and not break it into glyphs, then it's basically a nomenclator or book cipher approach. 

So you have have a long list of words where word structure doesn't matter. It's the same as you had these words numbered: word number 928=flower, 929=water, 930=leaf, 931=grow and so on. In such case a digit like 9 itself doesn't mean anything indeed.

It is actually possible although it would be the longest nomenclator ever.
