The hypothesis was met with cold reception on the VMs mailing list and I never cared about it too much but I still find it more credible than the reading in this article. * What would you write on a book you have investigated? AFAIK, 'sa' is a dialectal variation of 'se'.

* The accents are exactly where they are supposed to be in Czech. It may have belonged to the Holy Roman Emperor Rudolf II (1552–1612) or to his physician Jakub Horčický (1575–1622), both living in Prague. * The manuscript has been traced back to the library of Georg Baresch (1590–1622) from Prague.

In 2003, I posited that a Mr Tichý, an early researcher of the Voynich Manuscript scribbled this Czech 'cipher' on its last page. Both mean 'was investigated by 'no' Tichý' in Early Modern Czech. You get 'sabádalo notichím' or 'notichím sabádalo'. Now reverse it, treating 'ch' as one letter, like in Czech spelling. So let us read it as 'míchiton oladábas'. If you look closer at 'michiton oladabas', you will notice a smudge above the first 'i' and a spot above the middle 'a'.
