RE: Voynich through Phonetic Irish - rikforto - 11-11-2025
I noticed that you had some lessons up about the correspondences you've identified. I've only attempted to chart the consonants here. (Vowels seem largely implied and much more malleable, but we'll get to that.) What revisions, if any, would you make to this chart? I fully believe I have made some mistakes and introduced some gaps here. Note that the cells have EVA transcripts, e.g. "d" is d.
Notes:
- The letter EVA-g corresponds to Irish /in/, /eann/, /an/, /ann/; EVA-dy to /dinn/. There is no stand-alone /n/2.
- In a bench setting, EVA-cth is /tr/ and EVA-cfh is /fr/.
- Inferred from EVA-ckr being /kr/, however note EVA-k can also be /f/ in some circumstances
- I am unsure if I heard the examples correctly here, but this comports with my understanding of consonant mutation in Irish
- Can this be voiceless as well?
- EVA-sh corresponds to Irish /br/ with no mention of standalone /b/
- A “-” indicates an expected sound not accounted for by the tutorial
