Voynichese is a numeric cipher?

There is zero evidence for Occitan as far as I can see ... Every indication is it's langue d'oil, not lange d'oc

Just for clarity, the month names are most likely in a northern dialect. The other marginal inscriptions are of an unclear linguistic composition that at the very least seems to contain German. I personally don't buy Nick Pelling's Occitan claims, but he is yet to produce more evidence, so who knows?

Maybe it's German too. In any case, it is most likely the author of the manuscript, as the handwriting is very similar to the inscriptions on f116v.
