the first one is ambiguous, the second is incorrect, as a consequence, the text is undecipherable, i.e.
according to Younger, the KO-Rv is equal to Linear A’s “~KI-RO (“owed”) text – for him every text is
about bookkeeping. By the way, KI-RO, on the contrary, is asks, requires (KéR), by form and meaning
the closest word in English would be QueRy!
Let us describe the picture precisely, in details, but briefly, the way it was written: X stands for here
(iTT), in this case it means we have to read from right to left. The arc (íV) and sky/burn (éG) are
forming a ligature and on (-en) them is a dot for ten (TíZ), on (-en) top the sign éG, where the flame
should be, there is an íV sitting (üL). In short: {((íV+éG)-eN TíZ)-eN íV üL} + = {_V+_G-_N-T_S/Z-_N _V-
_L_} + . In the middle of the text are an eye (SZeM) and and another arc íV: SZ_M+_V. On the left-
hand side, on (-en) an arc (íV) a wafer-cake (oSTYa) with crest (TaRaJ) is growing (NőL) bigger and
bigger: {íV-eN TaRaJ-oSTYa NőL} + = {_V-_N T_R_J _ST_ N_L_} + .
impression transnumeration
X {(( )-en )-en ‘ül’} +
{ -en ‘ostya’ ‘nől’} +
X {((M08+044)-_N+’10’)-_N M08+_L} +
M04-M08
{M08-_N-171-_S_T_N_L_} +
In the next step, J.G. Younger transcribes the transnumeration into syllables derived from Linear B.
There is no reason for this step, as from Linear B being a syllable writing system doesn’t follow
automatically and there is no proof forwarded that the Cretan Hieroglyphs are also syllabaries. For fifty
years, the assumption that Minoan writings are syllabaries, didn’t brought the scientists a step closer to
decipherment of the texts, instead we transliterate the phonetic and positional values of the signs of this
ancient text into the corresponding consonantal root:
_V_G_NT_S/Z_N _V_L SZ_M_V _V_N T_R_J_ST_N_L_
A frightening row of illegible letters, but if we do the filling in of the vowels as it goes to make the row
legible, than the íVeGen ( -en) by its sounding suggests the üvegön reading and the ten (TíZ) as tes
will stick to the word, etc. and after a little experimentation, we will get the following intelligent
statement:
üVeGöNTéSeN, éVeL SZáMó’Va, éVeNTe RaJoS TaNuLó.
(on glass-casting, by year to year counting, yearly [there are] swarming students. Take the note
that in the Hungarian sentence the verb is not needed.)
This is a precise, brief, and plain Hungarian text! Today, and a bit more verbosely, it would sound:
Az üvegöntésen, évről évre számolva, évente tanulók raja (zsong).
(On glass casting/founding, by year to year counting, yearly swarm of apprentices make
themselves busy.)
