To make a real translation, it’s not enough to stare at the pages and try to “interpret” what they might say — that’s exactly why no one has ever reached any real result.
What’s truly necessary is to first define what language and specific linguistic system the original text was written in. Once that is established, we can start to identify a pattern. The next step is to propose solutions for how that language evolved or was transformed into the form we see today.
In the past, I worked on similar enigmatic texts, and the basic principle is always the same: you start by discovering one single word, and from that you build patterns, then another word, and another, until you reconstruct the alphabet.
That’s precisely the process my assistant and I followed for five months. Step by step, we reconstructed what became our Rosetta Table. When we finally applied that table to the manuscript — voilà! — the entire Voynich text appeared translated.
In other words, the hypothesis was confirmed through a reproducible linguistic method, not through interpretation.
