Cribs in the Voynich MS

[Jorge_Stolfi]

It has some very "inhuman" patterns like similar words or word parts appearing in clusters in rows and columns:

As for sequential repetitions, many languages, use You are not allowed to view links.

As for "vertical" patterns, one should always check whether a supposedly "non-natural" pattern occurs in ordinary text just by chance:
   
Perhaps these chance alignments are more common in Voynichese than in any random language.  But that needs to be measured, and one must take into account the fact that there are more similar-looking words in Voynichese than in French or English, and the frequency of use of each word is probably higher since the lexicon is rather small.

All the best, --stolfi
