The i-hooks and the tail coverage
#2
Anton, I have a HUGE chart documenting the different versions of "daiin" that includes the different tail coverages. I don't know if posting it is a good idea though. It is HUGE and it's a work in progress.

I suppose maybe I could post the first dozen folios, although even that is huge (it's about 47" wide by about 24" long PDF just to represent the first folios).


To give you an idea of what I mean by huge, here is a screensnap of a tiny little corner of the chart:

Down the left side, it lists folios. Along the top it lists the different versions of daiin. For example:

As examples (there are many more, this is just to give the idea). They are actual clips from the manuscript and I looked very very carefully at the length of the tails and how far over the minims they stretched. I also included the other glyphs that precede "ain" because there are several that typically precede it, not just EVA-d and they tend to be overlooked.

The dain group is MUCH more varied than is recorded in the popular transcripts, which means that many of the statistical studies might be worthless. IF the length of the tail is meaningful (in addition to the number of minims), then important information is being overlooked.
