Why and how the text could be Bavarian

[oshfdk]

What I really don't understand, though, is why people don't realize that simply by interpreting the VMS differently—where spaces are not word boundaries but rather delimit vowel bigrams, combined with the well-known slot system—a completely natural flow of language suddenly emerges, one that also fits perfectly with most of the structural features of the VMS.

Because this is not true? If you take a larger text and try to encode it this way, most likely the structural fit will disappear quickly. You can easily prove me wrong on this one, if you show how a long plaintext can be converted to plausible Voynichese using this method.

The idea that word ending and beginning combinations represent some characters is an old one. An example, likely not the first one chronologically: You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. "...the authors might have continued the alchemical pattern by combining the last letter of one word with the first letter of the next. Thus the spaces between would contain a binary of 2 characters. From there, I wondered if a new “alphabet” could be derived, one more amenable to decryption, perhaps even simple substitution."

But this trick doesn't change much.
