Voynich through Phonetic Irish

[Doireannjane]

So, I think I've got how to do the first layer of the transcription, so now I need to know how to choose between multiple options. For example, if I have t, how do I know which value to input into the dictionary? Likewise, how do I discriminate between the "sometimes" cases you give?

To begin with I didn't know, and I had looser translations - you can see that in the podcast too. It was more poetic. Now I know most words beginning with "ath" and can rule that out based off context of following characters/sound and look for "th" or "t" start of word. If "ath" is in the middle of the word I usually know the sound will be like "ah". Combo "Thr," I usually check Thr and Tr.

*rarely "th" doesn't seem to fit at all in the center in which case I'll consider "d", this happened with the word for "Maiden('s)", pronounced brideh I think
