Observations on the Visual and Functional Structure of the Voynich Manuscript

[nablator]

One word that appears on all the folios is otto ANI

All??? Whatever otto ANI is, it's not on all pages.

I notice is that at the end of each description, there is a sort of space and a “name.”

Large spaces can be anywhere, not just on the last line, and not always on the last line either.

Are you generalizing from a sample of 2 or 3 pages?

That sounds like a chatbot hallucination...

This may sound absurd to you, but I am connecting these analyses of the circles and the images, half-jokingly imagining that a convex lens was used both to draw and to look at the images. The rosettes, the circles with stars, and even the flowers.

Look at this example of this flower — how disproportionate it seems in the original image, and look at how it returns to sensible proportions when viewed with a convex lens

Please tell us where you got "otto ani" from.

Here are some images showing that writing appearing in many places.

You sound a bit nervous. Is everything alright?

[Koen G]

So he means that EVA [daiin] looks like 8 (otto in Italian) + "ani". 

Despite the complaints about EVA, it's still very useful as a standard.

I’m noticing that the most faithful line of text might be the first one at the top. In the lower lines, the scribe seems constrained by space, which may slightly distort the shapes of the glyphs. In the top line, with more vertical space available, the characters appear more carefully and clearly formed.

convex lens was used

Well that's definitely a unique approach I've not heard or seen before, I'll give you that at least.

This is an example of what can be seen in the rosettes when viewed through a convex lens.
