So yes, it seems fairly obvious that vords have a very strong internal alignment, which IMHO points towards an artificial language. I've always had a sneaking suspicion that Don of T had the right idea but applied it in the wrong way... Of course, if it is an artificial language, it's probably lost as we'll never know what the nouns and verbs represent.
I'm not yet convinced of artificial language, but I definitely think the text is artificial. I haven't done any work on this theory, but I wonder if each vord / segment of a word (core-mantle-crust) is input for a corresponding chart, where the presence or absence of certain vord components (q, a gallows letter, aiin vs. am, etc.) are all "instructions" on how to produce to plaintext outputs. This is completely a non-tested idea though.
