To the German words.
To make it more visible I cut out the teaching part of the page.
There is no difference between the VM text and the German words in the color and consistency of the ink.
Maybe there are two different people where they wrote and drew, but for sure the same ink. Probably also the same pen.
The marked character means nothing else than "and". This can also be found in other Alemannic written books. ( Bavarian dialect ). It is also an indication of the possible place of origin, since it is used regionally. But this is a different subject.
How could a forger ( Voynich ) have known this ? One must read it to understand what the sign means. Today it is in the Wiki.
If I take the German words "und dann muss das", this is the answer to the VM sentence above. So the VM text and the German text are in context.
Why should you do this if the VM text has no meaning ?
This is an indication that the VM text makes sense.

I think we have already had this discussion bye Klaus Schmeh in 2015.

It does the same thing on page 116. It combines 2 VM words in the context of the upper text (recipe or curse) with German text.
Why would someone do this if it is not necessary ?
