Ah but if you assume EVA-o is o, then why isn't EVA-d s or d? And EVA-a, a? And EVA-r, r? They all have similar counterparts in regular Latin texts, just like o does.
So then we're looking at vodar or vosar. That in turn would imply that you now discovered readings for several glyphs. Then you'll end up on Tavi's list and we have to explain why the theory doesn't work. (An admittedly dramatic way of saying: why assume o is o?)

We can also consider the initial "Um" to represent an entire word. By searching in Cappelli: verum, - virum, - vestrum utrum, - unum, - verbum

However, on the remaining 2-out-of-8 occasions ydain occurs in the first vord in each one of the two paragraphs in You are not allowed to view links.

Food for thought: If the Beneventan approach is a part of the cipher design, then all gallows could possibly be ligatures of two letters.

One major difference between the cipher manuscript and Beneventan scripts is the lack of punctuation marks in the cipher manuscript.
