The 'Chinese' Theory: For and Against

[Polodox]

To me the dictation or even the Chinese theory is too far fetched. The use of unique words in voynich is too small in the context of a dictation. People do not speak like this. But they can write like this.

Also in a dictation, particularly if it is a relatively unknown language, Chinese, the likelihood of mishearing and thus miswriting entire new phonetic chains is absurdly high. You would see multiple spellings within the script with regular inconsistency. 

I can read Chinese characters (in the context of Japanese) and am not buying the idea that literate scholar level people would have left China to give a dictation in Chinese to a foreigner who would not understood them in Chinese.
