Transliteration and interpretation of the Voynich MS text
#16
JKP, the rules for Eva state that {aa} and Aa are two equally valid notations for the same thing.

So, according to the rules for Eva, one can write {sh} and Sh,  or {so} and So, but by convention the latter is written as {c'o} precisely because the "quote" can also appear with other characters.

The capitalised way is a bit less easy to recognise, but allows accurate rendition in the TT font.

For example: cTHhy looks like cTHhy , but when writing {cthh}y it is easier to see which characters are connected.

Due to the high frequency, Sh is usually simply written as sh.

When talking about ligatures and abbreviations, then one is of course talking about interpretation rather than transliteration.
