Syllabic Hypothesis

This looks like it must be the paper you're describing:

I wasn't able to find a summary here, but your posts in You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. look as though they might involve similar experiments.

In your experimental example, you've broken the text into syllables that always end with a vowel.  That's different from what I was suggesting, but it might be more consistent with vord morphology, particularly in light of Emma's remarks.

Yes, indeed.
Also, I was not so much interested in definitely identifying syllables, but more: manageable units.

An underlying observation was that a majority of Voynich words end with:
- y
- [i]in sequence
- l
- r
which could be relatively easily mapped to vowels.
