No text, but a visual code

[Antonio García Jiménez]

The VM script with the shape of its glyphs has an obvious internal logic. Look for example the similarities between (e) and (i). What we see are the moon-shaped glyph and the inclined line-shaped glyph. 
  According to the Cham's Curve-Line System these strokes are fundamental to the VM script. And Emma Smith wrote in her blog these points true for both glyphs:



[*]They can freely occur in sequences of two or more. Other glyphs are rarely doubled and never tripled.

[*]They rarely occur at either the start or end of words.

[*]Many other glyphs seem to be composed of [e] or [i] with another stroke added.

[*]They rarely occur before glyphs containing each other. So [e] is unlikely to come before a glyph containing [i] and [i] is unlikely to come before a glyph containing [e].

[*]They appear in the same word less than might be expected.




For me, the moon-shaped glyph and other similar mark the path of the Moon and the inclined line marks the Sun's path. They are the structure to position the fixed stars, represented by the glyps (o) (a) and (y), which are not letters and have a complementary distribution in the script. (a) and (y) are the (o) with different strokes to differentiate the stellar positions.
