Using -Job-'s website I made a list of usual Latin prepositions, conjunctions and another frequent words which is used in the VMs.
in = o - 82 times
ad, ut, id = chd - 8 times 
et, de, te = d - 51 times (but "et" can easily be hidden in the word as the add-on "-que")
est, si = s - 244 times
vel, vino, vano = cheo, sho - 195 times
die, dei, dii = dsh - 2 times
non = op, sho (sh with "bow" superscript) - 1+++
autem, vitam, vatum = chedy, shdy - 547 times
sic = lk - 1 time

Hello Searcher,
here are statistics from a couple of Latin texts, in case you are interested in comparisons.

A 25000 words extract from Pliny's Historia:

    779 in
----
    180 ad
    159 ut
     34 id
----
    741 et
     44 de
----
    146 est
     50 si
----
     18 vel
----
     18 die
      3 dei
----
    188 non
----
     83 autem
      1 vitam
      1 vatum
----
     18 sic

A 25000 words extract from the Latin Bible (Vulgata):

   1011 in
----
    162 ad
    109 ut
      4 id
----
   1544 et
    131 te
    109 de
----
    337 est
     61 si
----
      3 vino
      1 vano
----
     43 die
     42 dei
----
    335 non
----
    155 autem

Thank you, Marco. 
I wrote about low number of prepositions and conjunctions in my interpretation, and, of course, I observe the lack of them in the text, when I decipher it. From the other hand, conjunctions, articles and prepositions, primarily, reveal a substitution cipher, for instance, if they are daiin and ol, I think, they could be easily revealed. The conjunction et may be  diversified with the similar atque, ac, autem or could be hidden in the words as the add-on -que. Besides, some spaces in the text are unclear, especially in the words beginning with o-glyph, they could be the preposition in. I suppose that some prepositions may be associated with nouns (amotione = a motione). 
Example: You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. chdalchdy - likely must be chd alchdy (ad rosidum + the next word collutum) (preposition ad + accusative)
But even in this case, ad  is very rare in my deciphering  Huh
