The Voynich Manuscript was an early attempt to construct an artificial or universal language of the A-Priori type.
This is the conclusion reached by the great cryptographer William Friedman after many years of study. The Voynich script is a synthetic language not based on natural languages. I don't think anyone who takes Voynich seriously can leave aside this conclusion from one of the most brilliant minds who investigated this codex in the 20th century.
On other occasions I have expressed my agreement with this conclusion, because what it means is that we are not dealing with phonetic units but rather that the glyphs of the script are symbols with meaning, semantic units.
