Theory: perhaps the letters do not have phonemic content?
#13
In my thread, I explore the possibility that the glyphs of the Voynich manuscript were created using the method of *charactères*—symbols resembling keys or spectacles. This method takes a source text and determines the value of each word using gematria; it then identifies a substitute word from extensive, pre-established lists and replaces the original with these specific symbols. The resulting text retains neither the original information nor any grammatical traces, yet it preserves the rhythm inherent in this transformation process. Reversing the process is impossible. These symbols have no phonetic value. The rationale behind this method of text transformation can be found in my posts.
