Delta Cipher

Everything Voynich is elusive. I suppose you'd do it the natural way: Create sequences of word differences according to various methods and then examine their statistical properties.

This assumes we know something about the plaintext. We are not even sure if it's Latin, Bavarian, Hebrew, or something even more exotic. It can be argued that for a normal medieval European made MS the most natural choice would be Latin, but the Voynich manuscript is certainly not a "normal" medieval MS, so very hard to guess the language.

Edit: I realized that I'm not sure I understood correctly what you were suggesting, could you elaborate?
