The Voynich Ninja

At the bottom of folio f56r, there is a large space between "kchoar" and "sotodan".

In my interpretation, the spacing exists because "sotodan" would overlap with the illustration. Do you agree?

I mention this because the Voynich text itself could be meaningless gibberish - certainly the qok*dy chains in You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. have low information content - in which case it's improbable that the author would not make good use of that space.

While there are other plausible explanations for that particular whitespace, in my opinion it suggests that:

1. The author's intent was to write down "sotodan", and no shorter word would do.
   
   
   
2. It was not desirable to split up the word in order to fill up the space.
   
   
   
3. It was not acceptable to fill in the space with a random set of glyphs.
   

If true, these are three important points, and a sensible set of axioms for further analysis and interpretation of the text.
