The glyphs that make up the script cannot be reduced to an alphabet. Transliteration systems leave out many glyphs. Jim Reeds made a catalog of these rare symbols. They are reproduced on the ReneZ website.
What happens is that the VM script is iconic in nature. I mean, the scribe or scribes try to graphically reproduce celestial movements. There are benched gallows that have a glyph c underneath, between the c's of the bench. It is the iconic way of representing the transit of the Moon. There are also gallows that have a glyph c under the legs. The t and k gallows have the c under the right leg. In the case of p and f gallows (lunar nodes), the glyph c, the Moon, is under the left leg.
Everything seems to be a game that simulates a language with words made up of astronomical symbols.
