Here is a master list of all purported decipherments or readings or language claims for Voynichese that have been discussed on the forum since its start in 2016. This will be updated every time a new solution or claim is posted to the forum. If you spot any that aren't on the list, please PM me. If you want solutions currently posted outside the forum to be added, please create a new thread for discussion on this forum, and I will add the thread to the List.
The List is only for theories/solutions where it appears the proponent believes they are correct. Posts that are clearly only speculating about a possibility will not be added. No AI-assisted solution (produced by prompting a large language model like Chat-GPT) will be added to the List, and any entries that are subsequently found to fit this description will be removed. AI-assisted solutions are not welcome on this forum.
List current total as of 06-03-2026:
65 plus 5 unidentified/unclear solutions
