High ammount of bidirectional pairs - quimqu - 16-05-2024
Hello all,
I have just started working with the intriguing Voynich Manuscript, attempting to shed some light on its text analysis. I conducted some basic text analysis using the V101 v. 2a transliteration file.
I programmed a bidirectional pair detection algorithm. By "bidirectional pair," I mean a pair of words that appear in both directions, such as "AAA BBB" and "BBB AAA." I found 1,284 bidirectional pairs (or 642 unique pairs, each counted twice due to the direction).
I understand that this phenomenon is not commonly found to such an extent in known languages. As far as I know, no known natural language routinely produces as many bidirectional pairs as I have identified. This could suggest either a highly artificial or constructed language or perhaps some unique feature or quirk of the manuscript's text.
I apologize if this finding has been reported before; I was unable to find any previous entries on this topic.Â
Looking forward to reading your thoughts.
Here are the top 20 bidirectional pairs I have found:
