To again be transparent, I admit that most of the post was generated by AI. That being said, I'd love for folks to consider, dispute, or engage with the idea that the VM text could be imperfectly transcribed Friulian. I have seen some mentions of Fruilian in relation to the text, but nothing that has explored Fruilian as a primarily unwritten language where a transcriber would necessarily need to invent symbols to represent phonetic sounds typical to that language. This is primarily a historical hypothesis asking for evidence or clarification: As Fruilian was a common, primarily unwritten language from the time and location that the VM has generally been assumed to have originated in, it might make sense to take a deeper look at that language as a source of the VM text.
