Why and how the text could be Bavarian

[JoJo_Jost]

I am sure that you know as a German speaker already: it is not German. Under no circumstances.

As for the call for a complete translation: This argument comes up time and again, and I understand why - but it's nothing more than a conversation-killer, not a research standard. Even a complete translation would be met with skepticism; we've already seen that with other proposals.

I have made it clear time and again that this is an ongoing project. This is exactly what research looks like before it is completed. If that doesn't seem like a familiar concept to you, I'm not quite sure what to say - if that were the standard, then honestly, nothing else happening in this forum really makes sense, since obviously no one here has a complete solution yet..

Regarding double consonants: The rules for geminate spelling were not standardized in Middle High German - different scribes handled it differently. More importantly: if this is a personal abbreviation cipher, double consonants are exactly what one would drop first. ss = s, nn = n. That's not a weakness of the hypothesis - it's a predicted feature of it.

And no, quite the opposite—as a German speaker, I would argue exactly the opposite: the more I think about it, the more convinced I am of this—simply because so much of it already sounds German even without the code. The strange certainty in your “under no circumstances” makes me wonder—did I hit a nerve somewhere?
