the 8 could be an s as well as a d as well as a an 8. The problem with the Vscript is that it is, unlike a book script, very variable, it is the script of an individual, that is why some people think there were different scribes at work. I think thw way to a soluruin would be to find out what the scribe meant by bis abbreviations
Helmut: Your point is good one I think. You are right we can't say for certain what shapes any of the Voynich symbols correspond to, though I think one can have some degree of confidence that an "8" is an "8". The fact is, it seems to me, that we can truly say very little about the Voynich with certainty. Nevertheless, I am operating on the basis that we can have some degree of confidence in what I see as reasonable inferences.
Well, to answer the question you ask: I feel quite sure that the gallows 4 is not a 4
That is interesting, why do you think that?
