Could o_t_o_l indicate the VMS is BS - coded - 18-04-2017
O_t_o_l is telling us something that’s hard for the camp of the voynichese people who believe the VMS text is meaningful. The other option is that labels are not labels which I think is incorrect. I think the Author made mistakes in trying to make a gibberish text meaningful when introducing labels. The four o_t_o_l labels I submit here simply cannot convey the same meaning unless some other system is in place where o_t_o_l can have several meanings. Yet a word usually translates to a 1-1 meaning. There are 85 instances of o_t_o_l in the VMS, but to have it relate to a star, plant, fire and pipes makes a strong case for mischief with what the Author intended.
I have offered up an option for this were a different system could relate vords to different vords through numbers, but this cipher cannot be replicated by different people.

A solution that has been proposed before is that words like these may refer to properties rather than nouns or names. For example, 'hot'.
Also words have many meanings, usually related but at times completely different. English 'ball' can be a football or a formal dance party. A party can be a fun event or a group of people as in a search party. A foot can be the thing you walk on or a unit of measurement. A unit can be one item or a group of people, like in the army. And so on.

Thanks Koen,
Well now I think hot maybe the answer here as in hot pipes, hot plant, hot star, hot for fire. Poison oak, which I have had does cause a hot itchy rash. So maybe this post was not a waste, but perhaps a new beginning for me thanks so much.
