No text, but a visual code

Wrong thread but...

I was just saying that the y in the Voynich MS is not to be equated with word-final -us, for very strong statistical reasons.

I understood what you meant, Rene (hopefully others did too). I was mainly responding to Antonio's interpretation of what you said.

I agree that statistically it is too frequent to directly equate to -us. I do, however, hold out a weak possibility that it may be used as a broader abbreviation (more meanings), since this was not unusual. However, I only hold to this possibility if other things are resolved (like glyph position within words), so it's definitely lower on my list of possibilities.
