Inside the Voynich Network: graph analysis

[Jorge_Stolfi]

But this needs to be tested and proofed... I really don't know if this can be so easy... (Guess not).

I don't think it is worth wasting time on that.  Adjusting the files to somehow compensate for the grammatical differences would be a horribly complicated task.  

For one thing, a word in one language may become two or more words in the other separated by unrelated words.   Italian "Luigi canterà?" = English "Will Luigi sing?"

I don't know any Hebrew, but, just for fun and edification, I got from the net the first verse of the Bible (GEN 1:1) in Hebrew, transcribed as it would be written in antiquity (without vowel/pronunciation marks), and what seems to be sort of a modern scholarly translation o fthe same:

BREŠYT BRE ELHYM ET HŠMYM WET HERṢ

BREŠYT = "in the beginning of"
BRE = "the creation"
ELHM = "by the gods"
ET = [direct object marker]
HŠMYM = "of the Heavens"
WET = "and"
HERṢ = "the Earth"


The "E" is aleph א which Whipedia says it is used only as a syllable marker, or whatever.
The ELHM is morphologically plural ("gods") but seems to be grammatically singular and now assumed to be a conventional/honorific way to refer to (the single) God.

Again, I don't know any Hebrew so the above example must be full of errors.  The point was only to show how far apart the local structure of two translations of the same text can be.

The sense of the translation above is very different from that of the traditional one "In the beginning God created Heavens and Earth".  And that is another problem to keep in mind: every language is ambiguous, and the ambiguities generally do not match.  Thus the job of translation constantly requires choosing one possible interpretation of the input words, and writing something that could be interpreted in the same way...

All the best, --stolfi
