Otoly appears in 11 distinct and undeniable cases.
Quote:qotol is just a little better (and also features a reduplicated occurrence):

qotol appears 53 times, and forms 9 variations
You can't really say that either of them are "rare", they are being used with a definite purpose within the corpus.
No, I am not saying otoly and qotol are rare (this is why I chose them as examples). I am saying that they only rarely appear in the same pages as otol. I included voynichese.com links to illustrate the low correlation. So I don't see much evidence of them being semantically related with otol (but in this respect, as I wrote, qotol is distinctly better than otoly). Of course, it's just my personal opinion and everything is possible.
