[Davidsch]

Yes, that's already been discussed above. The question is: was that common in German language manuscripts? Are there any characteristic examples?

I have no examples in German for you, 
i only thought i should mention that it is not only used when vowels are left out, but can mean anything is left out.

The reason i do not have German examples:
* i did not find nor focused on "German language" in that era
* i have only seen this used in Spanish, Portuguese, English, Italian and Latin.
* In the south of German and der Sweiss, they wrote a.o. Hochdeutsch and latin

This is a bit confusing, because now, German is the general name and that is considered to be Hochdeutsch. Around 1400-1500 however, "German" as it exists now, did not exist as Standarddeutsch. There were only different dialects depending on the region. But please feel free to correct me if i am wrong.
