Double language in ancient manuscripts

[tavie]

I think we have seen on this forum one or two manuscripts that contained some sections in Latin and some in the vernacular.  But I don't know about encrypted ones designed to increase confusion.

What I do know is that needing multiple languages to keep a system going has been a feature of other wrong Voynich solutions.  It's You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view..  

All wrong systems only work when targeting isolated words.  They break down when generalized to full lines, paragraphs, pages.  The solver then has to add more and more flexibility into the system.  This comes at the cost of intelligibility to even the authorised reader and makes little sense from the point of view of the author.  And even then it still does not result in meaningful, coherent syntax.  

So some solvers (e.g. You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. and You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.) claim there are multiple languages.  This gives them more words to choose from to try to torture out some recognizable meaning, like using a bigger net in the hope of finding a tiny fish.  Others abdicate responsibility and claim that there must be a way for it to make sense but that an expert in the language is needed to do the work.   But it's all the same:  the system fails, and they are trying to find ways to prop it up rather than asking themselves the key question:  could I be wrong?
