Why and how the text could be Bavarian

[DG97EEB]

What currently speaks most strongly against an artificial language or a string of meaningless letters and words for me is that we find prefixes in the manuscript such as d, ch,  which in turn combine with the base words, thus creating words like ddor, chcheey. However, we don't find this even once with the gallow signs. There is no kk, pp, tt, ff. Why would one deviate from a system if one wants to create meaningless words? Instead of writing the gallows symbol twice, spellings like kaiin to kokaiin are used to place the gallows sign before the base word without creating a double letter sequence.

It very clearly has very strong grammar and positional elements. You can computationally map which elements go together and which are essentially forbidden combinations. Add to that features like LAAFU and the Currier distinction, and it's clear there's something going on (Stolfi is the expert here).. but none of that means it's language. There are too many other confounding factors, and it's not necessarily a cipher either.  I think every cipher since 1400 has been thrown at this and nothing works. I've built 30 generators that can get very close (including the deep grammar), but none based on plain text and all based on pure generation. I've even simulated mixing Cardan grilles and volvelles taking Rene's paper as a starting point or Grescko's, and nothing touches it... So my conclusion is it's highly likely not to encode plain text and is simply generated.. but I can't prove it any more than anyone else.  Sadly statistics alone only take you so far.
