Cvetka's Slovenian Theory Thread

[ReneZ]

While I always respect the effort that people put into their proposed solutions of the Voynich MS text, and this is one example of that, I again agree with @nablator here.

The Slovenian theory of Cvetka and the Turkish theory discussed extensively in this forum have in common that they propose a relatively close mapping of the Voynich MS characters to characters (or sounds) in some plain text language.
This approach has serious problems which are largely independent of the language that is being proposed.

It will not be possible to map words between the MS test and the proposed language with any consistency at all, because of all the known statistics, be they bigrams or trigrams, or be it entropy. Of course, these are closely related to each other.
With that, it will be even more difficult (I don't want to say 'more impossible') to create grammatical constructs.

Unfortunately, in many cases the proponents of theories are willing to provide output, but not to seriously take into account inputs from readers here. The meaning of 'not seriously' should be clear to all: denial of the value of the inputs, and reiteration of unproven claims.

The proponents of the theories are not convincing the readers and the readers are not convincing the proponents of the theories about the issues. Threads like that can go on for a long time.

But at least, the readers can get some understanding among themselves about the issues.
