For example the "and" word is the most common one in English texts and so it would be in the language of Wilkins. But Voynich Manuscript doesn't have such patterns. We don't have a good candidate for "and" word.
I guess we could say that if Voynichese is a conlang then it has some really alien grammar. Or maybe not necessarily alen, just not European as some people suggest on these forums
Oh waw! Thank you Rafal! You went deep and I agree with your point, you are right Wilkins’ language mimics English in its grammar and that seem to be even a more serious problem to be a model for a hypothesis on the VMS than the 2 century gap.
Sorry if my question is too basic, I am still pretty new on this topic, how do we know there are no words like “and” and “the” in the VMS? Statistic analysis can be fully conclusive on that? Is there a paper or presentation you can refer me to on that?
