Morten St George Theory

[Morten St. George]

You must be scan-reading (or mixing up my posts with other people's posts) because I never said that was a "y". It's somewhat shaped like a "y" but that doesn't mean it's a "y" or even that it's a letter (it could be a symbol or a number).

I had another look and can now see that you guys were referring to the EVA y and not the Latin y. The EVA y makes sense in the given context. Sorry about that.

I avoid referring to the Voynich glyphs as letters—I call them glyphs. I don't call them words either; I call them "tokens".

I believe Shakespeare used the word "tokens" to refer to undecipherable Greek words (which would make it appropriate for the VMS!) but I think I'll stick with "words" for words as it should be easier for most people to understand.
