What if it's a "Lossy Encoder" for 15th-Century Latin?
#8
Dear oshdfk, I am not proposing any solution nor am I seeking one. 


But I am trying to find a possible explanation for several Voynich anomalies, such as low character entropy, bimodal frequencies, repetition, and immediate reduplication. I am also interested in glyph dependencies, weak word-to-word relationships, positional patterns, and the differences between Currier A and B.

I have some ideas about how these features might fit together, but I would welcome help developing and polishing them. I am comfortable with the statistical side, but I am not an expert in linguistics or cryptography.

My basic premise is that the glyph strings we see in the manuscript are not a language as such. This would mean that there may be no directly recoverable grammar or identifiable language at the visible-text level.
