Even if Eva is largely pronounceable, there are many words that aren't, at least comfortably. While the opening lines of You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. (in Cuva, as shown by Marco) seem to be OK, there is already a word ending in -NR that is uncomfortable.
There are also such words as chcthy / chcThy and oeeos / oeeos
The characters / sequences ee and ch seem to be able to replace each other, but the first is usually classified as a vowel (pair) and the second as a consonant.
Even word endings like -NR are not impossible if you throw languages like Elamite in the whirlpool of possibilities.
Meanwhile, I´m quite sure, that the Voynichese is pronouncable. I will post a possible substitution chart later this evening and you can try to work it, if you want. But at the moment I still can´t say for sure, which language Voynichese could be.
May you have an idea, if you see my transcription examples.
