BREAKING!! scientists close to decoding Voynich Manuscript, using major AI!! and guess what!! it's written in.. HEBREW!
...Discovered in the 19th century, the Voynich manuscript uses “alien” characters that have long puzzled cryptographers and historians. Now, however, computing scientists at the University of Alberta say they are decoding the mysterious 15th-century text.

The first stage of the research was working out the manuscript’s language. The experts used 400 different language translations from the “Universal Declaration of Human Rights” to identify the language used in the text. Initially, it seemed like the text was written in Arabic, but the researcher's algorithms revealed that the manuscript is written in Hebrew.

“That was surprising,” said Kondrak, in a statement. “And just saying ‘this is Hebrew’ is the first step. The next step is how do we decipher it.”

Kondrak and Hauer worked out that Voynich manuscript was created using ‘alphagrams’ that use one phrase to define another so built an algorithm to unscramble the text. “It turned out that over 80 per cent of the words were in a Hebrew dictionary, but we didn’t know if they made sense together,” said Kondrak.

Scientists using the AI managed to piece together a sentence, which will then allow them to apply this knowledge to the rest of the text.

The sentence was: “She made recommendations to the priest, man of the house and me and people.”

Experts will now have to enlist the help of historians of ancient Hebrew to try and piece together its meaning, with many of words appearing to be jumbled up.

Step number one, Kondrak told CTVNews, was figuring out what the language is. The statistical algorithms he and his co-author designed proved about 97-percent accurate when translating the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights (into 380 languages). The same process, applied to the Voynich manuscript, suggested the language was Hebrew. As for the code, they believe that it involves the letters in each individual word being shuffled, and their vowels dropped.

According to their algorithms, the manuscript's first complete sentence reads, "She made recommendations to the priest, man of the house and me and people." They also believe the text includes the words "farmer," "light," "air" and "fire," according to CTVNews.

Hebrew? I would never have guessed that in a thousand years.

Hope they translate it soon. Be nice to read the thing after it's all unscrambled.

Wonder why they scrambled it all up in the first place?

Researchers from University of Alberta have used artificial intelligence to decode sections of the ancient manuscript, using a technique called algorithmic decipherment to reveal the underlying, encrypted language hidden behind the strange book's words.

825 voynich manuscript 4(Beinecke Rare Book & Manuscript Library)

It's not an easy thing to do, the team explains in their paper, given the number of unknowns involved.

"The Voynich manuscript is written in an unknown script that encodes an unknown language," the authors write, "which is the most challenging type of a decipherment problem."

Testing their algorithm on 380 different translations of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the researchers' system was able to correctly identify the language of origin 97 percent of the time.

It has already been decoded and determined to be a women's health guide that's mostly plagiarized from other books circulated during the 15th century.

I didn't think I would ever know what it said.
I hope they are honest with us and don't twist it for some agenda.

I can just imagine... the manuscript warns of global warming and the dangers of not accepting African migrants into western countries.

Me too. I remember when it first made it's way onto the web. I studied it for several weeks & came up with the notion that it must be from another civilization in the cosmos. Perhaps left here by a time-traveller. Or even from a previous civilisation that lived on Earth. I never saw anything that resembled Hebrew in it. This is indeed a big surprise.

I told you it's a guide on herbal medicine for women. That's why it has pictures of (get this) herbs and women.

It also has zodiac symbols, because that was part of how these herbal doctors viewed the world.
