I have some ideas concerning VM and was advised to start separate thread. I'll try to describe them briefly.
First of all the map from Voynich to Latin (* stands for any vowel sequence):
o - v, y, b, u
e - c, t, g
y - com-, con-, -is, -us
This is usually com-/con-, -cum/-cun and sometimes -us/-os ("-is" is described by a different character, the loop with ascender).
d - l
ch - e*r
l - m, n
k - d
r - r, -rum
If you mean the r with a tail, it is not usually -rum. More often it is -er or -re. The most common -rum symbol is like a flourished number 4.
n - (none)
t - l*l
q - q, k
sh - pr, fr
s - s, x
If you mean Eva-s (the c with a tail), in Latin that is usually -ur or -tur (and sometimes other things, depending on context).
p - p, f
m - ris, rus
cth - l*l*r
ckh - d*r
f - s
cfh - f*r
g - lis, lus
x - z
In latin, -cis -ris and -tis are expressed by the character that resembles a "j" with the angles (or their lack) denoting the difference between them. All three shapes can be found in the VMS.
ai-family are vowels
Second hypothesis: words with gallow in front are capitalized, others are not. So,
a) if a word starts with gallow, but shouldn't be capitalized, o is written in front (that's why texts near images often start with o)
b) if a word starts with non-gallow, but should be capitalized, gallow is written in front.
Separate words undoubtedley can be translated with this key. For example, famous daiin appears to be form of Latin ille.
More specific details can be found in attachment.
Cheers

Can VM be written in vowelless Latin?
