You posted those verbatim as the sole content of your reply to Rene's post without specifying that those are quotes (the latter you did only by editing your post 15 minutes since). Hope that's clear enough.

Rene Wrote:The question remains, how such a method could have been used to encode a meaningful text. A set of wheels as described here generates a list of words that could be considered an enumeration system, simply counting from 1 to some large number N. Hypothetically, someone could have generated a word list or dictionary, to translate words in some existing language to this system. This may seem unlikely from a modern viewpoint, but that is quite subjective. This possibility should not be discarded just yet.
The choice of three wheels with 24 different entries each also allows other possibilities. The number 24 represents the number of characters in the Greek alphabet, but also Latin (when equating I with J and U with V) and Italian (when not considering k or w). A text in any of these languages could have been split into groups of three characters, where each character would then be mapped to a Voynich word fragment according to the three wheels. This is of course highly speculative.

Is it throughout the text generally, or just certain terms apparently used as names or other designations such as seen in specific locations, like the cosmic and zodiac sections?
