Roman numerals to Voynicheesy

[MarcoP]

 i wanted some numbers to decode into multiple words  ( thats my personal preference for how voynichese works )

Type token ratio (TTR / MATTR) for Voynichese is compatible with a 1 to 1 mapping. If anything, it's a little higher than the average European language (more Voynichese word types, in this context, a plain-text word type mapped into more than one cipher word type). See Lindemann "Crux of the MATTR" You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.

Of course, there are reasons that make a 1 to 1 word mapping (nomenclator) unlikely e.g. LAAFU or the frequent consecutive repetition of the same word, or the absence of words that are frequent in all the manuscript (function words).

BTW I don't think this system explains "pseudo-repetition". Of course, it can occur, as in natural languages ("red rod" "hard card" etc.). The point is that in Voynichese the pattern is more frequent than random: something "pushes" similar words next to each other. Years ago, Rene proposed a number-based system that indeed generated significant pseudo-repetition (but not perfect repetition): You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.
