Text parsing and BITRANS

[-JKP-]

I don't want to get too far off René's topic, Aga, but if the chart you posted is about Latin scribal conventions, a few of those are correct, but quite a few of them are not. Is this something you did? Or by someone else? It isn't quite correct. Here are some of the inconsistencies with Latin scribal conventions:

• For example, the r shape in the top-right corner is not used for -ur or -tur. -ur/-tur is written like the number 2 and it is usually superscripted. If you want to see examples, I have many of them.
  
• The long-cee (c) in the top-left corner of the chart is not used for con-/com-. I have never seen it used that way. For con-/com- they almost always use 9 or a reverse-cee shape.
  
• The s is not usually used for con or cum, it is not even usually a "c". Most of the time it is "e" with a tail (for words like eius), but sometimes it is a "c" with a tail, but usually for ce or cer or similar syllables or words, not for con or cum.
  
• The g shape is not usually used for eius. Most of the time they used s for euis. The g shape in Latin languages is usually the suffix -cis, just as the m is usually -ris (or sometimes -tis).
  
• The k is usually "Item". In French, it is a ligature for "Il".
  

BUT... I'm not quite sure what the chart represents:

1. Is it a chart of Latin conventions (if so, several of them are wrong and should probably be corrected), OR
   
2. Is it a chart of possible interpretations of Voynich glyphs (in other words, not really Latin, but some guesses about what these shapes might mean in Voynichese)??
   

If the chart represents a theory about what the shapes might mean in Voynichese, then it doesn't have to be perfect Latin, it just has to have good logic for the choices.
