a)
Now i am confused, because you show any word can morph into any word, there is no basis.
But, isn't there always a basis? If there is no basis, there is also no group.
But you call them (glyph) groups, and there actually is no grouping anymore:
any word can become any word in one or more steps.
daiin' - 'chdaiin' - 'chedaiin' - 'chedan' - 'chedan' - 'cheda' - 'chedy'
------------2-----------1-------------2---------?-----------1----------1 = 7
i can do that also quicker:
daiin' - 'daiiny'(f2r) - 'chey' - 'chedy'
--------------1----------5---------1 =6
Or quicker:
daiin' - chedy
----------5
Edited:
there are 2 glyph groups, which i seem to have confused with VMS words.
group I : o,a,e,i,y,
group II: ch, sh, n, r, s, l, d, m, q, k,t,p,f
Actually when glyp group together (always) do exist, this is a word.
b)
We see there are some rules . Perhaps these can be refined. You defined some of them on page 5.
Another rule is the position of some of the letters.
And there is a pool of letters to choose from.
I am trying to see if we can use domino-blocks to build us a word. on a domino block there are at least 2 letters. Perhaps more.
We will see.
c)
You stated on page 7 that a maximum of four changes/ or occurences is obvious. I was referring to that.
If we look at the word modifications there is no real maximum, except the pool of letters and the rules we found. Correct?
Quote:Q: .. but did you examine how do glyph-groups originate in essence ?
A: basic word stems" doesn't exist for the VMS. The words in the VMS build a multidimensional grid of similar words. Nearly all the words have a close “edit distance” to one of the three most frequent words: 'daiin', 'ol', and 'chedy'.

Quote:A: There are only common patterns. For instance you can replace glyphs with similar ones and you can add prefixes ('y', 'o', 'qo', 'ch', 'sh', 'l', 'ol'). ... But this doesn't mean that it is possible to define strict rules.

Quote:Q: You write there is a maximum on the change of a word-stem. That maximum seems 4.
A: There is a maximum of prefixes you can add to a core word, but this doesn't mean that the number of changes is limited.
Beside prefixes you can replace a glyph with a similar one. For instance it is possible to replace 'a' with 'y' and 'o', whereas 'y' normally occurs at the beginning or end of a word. But sometimes a glyph also occurs together with its possible replacement. This way you get words like 'dyaiin' ('dy' + 'aiin').
