Abstract
For a long time I looked at the Voynich only through the glyphs until I learned about the EVA system of TT; since there were many versions of Voynich transcriptions, I used TT’s to support myself and see if there was something I could not see by only looking at glyphs, and then I could see that sh is more like ch but with something on top, just like cfh cth cph; then I could see that transformation of ch with the accent becomes ckh, then cth, then cph, and at the end cfh, as if it proposed that it is mutating, transforming. I also could see that the loose glyphs (o, s, r, a, l, y, e) and the glyphs k, t, p, f are its phases that are being passed through. There are glyphs that suggest being closures or endings n, in, iin, iiin, m, mm, g; it is as if the Voynich were a kind of Arabic writing where each glyph represents an idea, and by combining them in a word it indicates an action to be performed for a result within a folio that continues and closes in other folios. I could notice that there are glyphs that enclose other glyphs (ata, oto, yty); ataiin suggests that the glyph a dominates the glyph t for an end of cycle or in a cycle count; that depends on what iin would mean. There are processes enclosed by glyphs, qokchor for example q+ okcho+r; the kch is dominated by the glyph o so that the glyph q works and ends in r. All of that repeating throughout the entire manuscript. A test I did studying other books of the time that focused on plants, I could notice that everything begins with a good fermentation so that the result can be properly stored without spoiling.`
