f69v_f70r1_f70r2 - Strange Voynich (Latin?)
#1
My copy of this page was terrible until recently, but I got a better one and had a closer look, there are some really odd things going on! 

Is this a Voynich/Latin mixed word?! It might be a Voynich "s" done... weird.. but the "u/v" is odd, maybe its o and they didn't join up, and the "i" is tilted the wrong way in comparison with rest of text.. just feels like a couple too many "mistakes" in a row?

The "e" shape reminded me of You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. marginalia, because of its enlarged size to what I would expect (in modern writing). My Latin knowledge is as far as I could get from what I picked up on posts on here, but I thought it was "st", I had ChatGPT image analyse it and it seemed confident on "e", be interested to hear the real answer from people on here

ḡ?! I thought it said "5" for a second, then saw another one

There's a lot of very odd things on this pages for normal Voynich text, not as in rare glyphs, but just stuff written strangely. Here's a few examples. I think some of these could just be very bad touch ups or new additions, and so separate from above. I include them though because, maybe.. the person doing these pages was new to Voynich to messed up some text / left some Latin in?

Presuming left to right this means the text must be middle to outer.. or some other implication/significance

More "u/v" this does not look like an unfinished "o" looking at rest of text

The vord starts with "o"

Full stops? (+ weird glyph combo)

Missed line for "s" or dotted i ?

I could keep going and going, but you get the picture.. I think most of it could be sort of waved away somehow, but the macrons ḡ ? This looks to be original ink not the darker touch ups
Personally I think these pages might be a case of "2 dots don't mean anything, but many make a line", too many odd things to put down to just touch ups / fading / marks on page etc, but what do you guys think?
