  • The Voynich manuscript has puzzled cryptographers for a century. It’s hand-written in a writing system that's yet to be deciphered. Now a facsimile of the book is being published, to get to the bottom of the mystery.

    If i was paid, i might be able to decode it if anything is earthly made.
    When i was younger i used to code text messages easy, i just have to tell the destiny coding structure and was easy as that, but for others that text meant nothing and rubbish. I send and receive letters to my girlfriend from prison, and others thought that is just kind of nice underline or border paintings.

    In the 21st century, something that cannot be deciphered is probably just gibberish. However, that cannot be certain 100% - but now they published a book so the masses can look at it. I'd give it to one of those rare special folks (usually on the Autistic spectrum) and see what they make of it since the best crypto minds have given up...

No other scholar even mentions this nonsense. This is proof enough for me. What is your proof beyond lapping up the Ardic family's OWN statements regarding all these wonderful "discoveries" they have made? Is your only source CZcams, specifically the Ardic family's youtube channel? Is that your level of scholarliness?

    The author distorted the words of his country that he used,or elongated the letters making them like fancy calligraphic letters. Or distorted letters of Latino language that he used ( maybe )making it looks like a tamil alphabet, nepal alphabet or fancy calligraphy letters.( or alphabet of his country
    I think : It is a type of small enclyclopedia ,nothing interesting.nothing strange,
    It is like the game : remove one matchstick to solve the equation ,same should do with letters.

      Probably not a lot, but it would be a nice thing to have if you are rich. I suppose it could help you get in the mind of the author. Obviously it can't be a perfect facsimile as they would have to have used 15th vellum amongst other things like it looking the same under multispectral imagining.
