Voynich through Phonetic Irish

[Doireannjane]

No one has tried to reproduce what I've done on the thread. The initial steps maybe, but let me remind you, this took me months (to figure out just the basics).

I have, if unwisely, attempted to reproduce what you have done and a number of my questions about how you did it remain unanswered. I stopped when you made substantial, unexplained adjustments to your rendering of the Irish mid-thread because I could not have contrived a better demonstration of how this is your subjective judgement of the text rather than a method the rest of us can follow.

I explained what is needed to start translating. It requires a substantial amount of listening. How do I know you've done that? It seems like everyone is speeding along on their own, with a set of rules that don't necessarily apply to this text, it's not at all a natural learning process. To demonstrate you need to learn. I told the steps and it's not evident that anyone has put time into doing even the initial steps. I've written down every exception and someone is demonstrating this week. I've taught software engineering to adults, and adults with a background in management or in tech sometimes do worse than a truck driver or Target employee for example, because of differences in mentality and a lack of curiosity, the inclination to judge/critique.
