reading [y] as a null character

[RenegadeHealer]

The problem with the idea of [y] as a general-purpose abbreviation symbol, standing for a wider variety of abbreviations, is that one could then make it represent almost any grammatical or derivational suffix one pleases, in any language. In this case the script would give us almost no information about the actual grammar of the language--the rest of each vord would presumably represent the roots or stems of the words, but as soon as each word reaches the grammatical suffix, we would find the identical [y]! Imagine trying to interpret the grammatical relations and meaning of the following line:

hi geoff

perh voyn manus is notebk writ w v simp lang
as long as targ aud can comprh no prob
notebx oft take lib w sp gramm punct caps etc
also line as func unit comm in notebx bc makes strip down lang more easl comprh

if tru then no wond stat analys not like norm writ lang
