I'm afraid you have missed my point here. Let me rephrase my question: how are you determining whether a word ending with -b needs to be reversed by you or be left untouched in order to find meaning?
In the small sample you provide, there are a number of words ending with EVA m, which you transpose as -b. These are theoumib; chtyib; irib; sisib; and oub (EVA sheoctham; olfcham; aram; dalam; and aim). You then reverse the order of four of these in order to produce a Middle English word. But not sisib. You say the b was naturally at the end of the word. How does your system distinguish between sisib and the others, and does this happen anywhere else?
