Vord frequency histogram as an indicator of the text category
#20
Well, I calculated the distribution using the Voynich Reader tool and Takahashi's transcription, excluding "dubious" words from calculation.

What I see seems a bit weird at a glance - of 6818 Voynichese words 6029 (or 88%) occur only 5 times or less. 6359 Voynichese words (or 93%) occur 10 times or less.

Only 55 Voynichese words occur more than 100 times.

Is that OK for any cohesive text, even if we mind that there might be different word forms?

This looks like a very limited basic vocabulary with a high amount of specific terms?!
