Why and how the text could be Bavarian
#89
And so it continues. Here are the lines surrounding it.

What becomes clear is that the cipher isn’t quite right yet. That was to be expected, though.It would have been a fluke.

But more importantly: sentences are emerging that, at least in form, represent sentence structures. This is a key point, as it makes it clear that with the correct cipher, a translation of the text would be possible – and that is astonishing enough. 

The problem is, if it really is a cipher of this kind, it will be difficult, if not impossible, to decipher it. And I realise that I’m shying away from the effort, because it would be years of work with no guaranteed outcome. 

I now assume that it’s a really poor cipher, that the cipherer didn’t know what he was doing, and that this is the reason why it hasn’t been deciphered so far.

But what the attempts at deciphering have shown so far is that Bavarian is a plausible possibility, precisely because it fits the Voynich text really well in terms of word structures, sentence grammar, word lengths and a few other points. 

Unfortunately, I’ve lost a bit of enthusiasm for it at the moment, especially as I’ve got other new projects on the go, but as many say, you always come back to VMS eventually – perhaps sooner than you think. Let’s see how many days I can stay away from the hustle and bustle here Big Grin Wink , so whether I’ll pick it up again in a few days or only in a few weeks, or whether at all....

All the best to you all...

Sour, one look (at) the white of the wine, that was the way, (it shall) not be, (if) it (is) sour, a(n) (authentic) ware
Sour make one it, thick shall one mix, one mix in the wine — salve be (a salve results)
Lunar (at the moon) one never let loose, the one the white, the ware
