Early on I read your web page and thought it was interesting, but could not
make a determination either way about your method because you do not "show your
work", as it were.
To me, a proposed solution must show a) the method whereby the translation
comes, b) the original, c) the translation in progress and d) the translated
text.
For instance:
Let's say I proposed that
EVA d = 'Mus' or 'M'
EVA y = '-s or 'us'
etc
then in my translation I would show:
daiin 8am 8am 8chol8ay
Maus mas mas meibmusas
The mouse does not look like medusa (or whatever)
You just give the last line (the translation) so we can't even guess as to
whether your translation makes sense. Again, this is my opinion, without
the work shown the result is suspect and therefore to be ignored.

approach. I reviewed history of that region first. Each political upheaval
brings atrocities and innovations. The VMS was discovered at that time and was
sent to This explains the strange drawings in VMS. I assumed that the VM is written in Slavic language and began to sort the alphabet. When I finished it become evident that the alphabet consists of consonants only. The final result was published and the step by step method of my decipherment is given in my Home Page http://home.att.net/~oko/home.htm . Yes I started with believe but now I know. However I found out that there are people on VMS list
that completed at list 90% of decipherment. Why I know? About 6 years ago in my
amateurish way I tried to show that the alphabet is very old. I posted coin from
5-6 century BC and pointed out that the same number appears in VMS. Before I
could publish more letters the member posted that he knows the number. The
number was named ?peacock?. Than other members began to post that
they know that the VMS is written in Latin and what is written on each page. If
one knows the language and what is written than it is easy to find alphabet and
post on VMS-list. I am still waiting for their posting. No I am not waiting for
intimidating tests just for defined VMS alphabet. John
