Typo in ZL_ivtff. There is a small cap too, so it should be shol, not chhol.

Thanks!
You are right, and it has been updated in the on-going version 3b (not online).
I am happy to note that the You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. has it correctly.

But what about labels then?

I have another interesting find.
Something with greetings.
But that's like in a letter at the end, like kisses kisses kisses. ***
Therefore not comparable with the VM.

Well, at least it shows that such juxtapositions are possible.
RE: Sequential word repetitions in the VMS - MarcoP - 11-05-2023
The strange thing in the Voynich is that reduplication averagely occurs 3 times in 100 words, i.e. once every 3 or 4 lines. Also, repetitions often involve the most frequent words: "the the" rather than "kisses kisses".
RE: Sequential word repetitions in the VMS - Aga Tentakulus - 11-05-2023
I think a big problem is that we don't see punctuation.
Without punctuation and a misspelling, I get nine identical words in a row.
In German:
The statement:
"alle aale alle" The question: "alle aale alle? The answer: "alle aale alle".
And now without punctuation. I'll just let the imagination run wild now.

There's no amount of punctuation that can explain away this frequency of reduplication though, spread over so many pages, "dialects" and apparent subjects. There is some inherent property of Voynichese that causes the prevalence of reduplication to surpass the incidental.
RE: Sequential word repetitions in the VMS - Aga Tentakulus - 11-05-2023
I think one problem is also the tone shift in the dialects.
In Zurich "las los" let it go
Bavarian "los los" let it go / here the tone length of o decides in the pronunciation.
