Has anyone ever "deciphered" a paragraph? - Koen G - 12-04-2021
I was just thinking that it would require a great amount of creativity to convert any paragraph of Voynichese into something (anything) that makes sense using any repeatable method. This alone would be quite the feat, and I don't think it is possible.
For the method to be repeatable, it should be possible to express it as a set of rules for someone else to reach the same results. This means, and this is the most important condition, that the method may not include an "interpretative step" which basically turns it into a one-way cipher.
All "solutions" I've seen so far are either unextendable (only keywords, no paragraphs) or unrepeatable (one-way cipher with too much freedom). Therefore I believe it is impossible to translate a paragraph in a viable way. At least using the many methods that have been revealed to us so far
