Re: Them's the breaks

I tried wordbreaking on duplicate letters (like ii or cc) but so far results are not that convincing. second thought is that letters such as chc (case 1 in picture) is same letter as h but with diacritics. for instance in French e and é. Others such letters include the 2 c linked (see #2) which coul...

Re: Alternative transliterations

interesting. Myself, I am still working on a transliteration more suited to computer analysis. I have built a computer typerwriter that allow me to re-write voynichese using new font matching one char per voynichese letter. Then the software will perform groupings and compute stats (zipf, and other ...

Re: Phonetic Alphabet

difficult indeed. Just try to find (free) online text to start a comparative analysis... We should put all of our source text in one globally accessible database... Ancient Greek has no dialect but medieval French has many. (bretons, Occitan &c)... But as difficult it is to find source text it's eve...

Re: Sukhotin algorithm for vowel recognition

interesting. I am currently working on a OCR that can read Voynichese directly from the hires pictures... and I noticed that some symbols were transliterated as two or more chars when they could also have been 1 (or inversely). I had to make a choice (see picture) is the VMS letter one or three (CHC...

Re: Analysis of words and their places within the document

Reading more about zodiac and astrological "science", I added the "ruling planet" for the signs (whatever that means) and there is some sort of correlation between the "vocabulary", the words that are found ONLY on certain zodiac folios when they are grouped together in Zenn diagrams... as ahown her...

Re: Analysis of words and their places within the document

I forgot to mention that Cancer and Leo (not in the diagram) do NOT share any of their unique distinct words. Those are present ONLY on folios with a zodiac circle.

Analysis of words and their places within the document

Hello, I hope the attachments is available... But if not, here is how I came to this [somewhat stange] findings... Some words (I removed successive duplicate letters and I am using the file LSI_ivtff_0d the interlinear archive of Voynich manuscript transcriptions in eva (IVTFF EVA- 1.5) and the line...

Re: two of my pet ideas

Exactly, that is why it is very hard... I tried numerous approach, even using dys-vocal to transform medieval french text into vowels (phonème) and using this as possible source for VMS pattern matching... not a lot of success these mainly because I have no much luck at transforming text into sound!...

two of my pet ideas

Nice forum ;) For some time (yes years!), i have been working on two assumptions: 1) the text is phonetic representation of a spoken language (not understood by writer?). Each "letter" is a sound. IF IOU RIDE IT ALOUDE IOU HONNE DERE STANDE (that's roughly what I mean if a french writer were to regi...
