The word Pot has a very different meaning from the word Rot. But in writing, the letter R is just P with a little stick. In Voynichese we have ch (without plume) and c'h (with plume). Is c'h (with plume) 3 letters or 2 letters or 1 letter?My feeling is that Ch and Sh are distinct letters, but they can fit in the same slot in most Vounichese word models. Like "L" and "R" can be usually exchanged in English words, even in most consonant clusters like PR/PL, RK/LK. RN/LN, etc. (But not in "STR", apparently).
And furthermore I think that Che and She are two additional letters, distinct form Ch and Sh, but also fitting the same slot in the word structure. Like in English "ch" and "sh" are additional letters distinct from "c", "s", and "h".
All the best, --stolfi
