"qo" variants might still be interesting, though I'm not really sure where this leads
I went and checked every folio to see which scribes uses what words. I'll check qo variations later on. You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. was written by Scribe 4 in language B according to the paper from Lisa Fagin Davis, so all the characters appearing once are in that hand and from that Currier "dialect".
Below, the ones that appear more than once, Scribal distribution and dialects. As a reminder, I have not analysed okeody, otchy, oteol and ykeey since they appear a lot and I don't have the time now to go through them all, but will do so when I get the chance.
List (including appearance on f69v):
- okolar: Scribe 4, lang. B x 2
- oteeys: Scribe 4, lang. B x 2
- saiir: Scribe 1, lang. A x 1 / / Scribe 3, lang. B x 1 / / Scribe 4, lang. B x 2 / / Scribe 5, lang. B x 1
- saral: Scribe 1, lang. A x 2 / / Scribe 2, lang. B x 2 / / Scribe 4, lang. B x 2
- ytody: Scribe 1, lang. A x 3 / / Scribe 2, lang. B x 3 / / Scribe 4, lang. B x 2 / / Scribe 5, lang. B x 1
- okeal: Scribe 1, lang. A x 2 / / Scribe 3, lang. B x 8 / / Scribe 4, lang. B x 2
- otody: Scribe 1, lang. A x 2 / / Scribe 2, lang. B x 2 / / Scribe 3, lang. B x 6 / / Scribe 4, lang. B x 4
- okeey sar: Scribe 4, lang. B x 2
- okeod: potentially Scribe 1, lang. A x 1 / / Scribe 4, lang. B x 2
- ykeody: Scribe 1, lang. A x 6 / / Scribe 2, lang. B x 2 / / Scribe 4, lang. B x 8
- okody: Scribe 1, lang. A x 4 / / Scribe 2, lang. B x 1 / / Scribe 3, lang. B x 3 / / Scribe 4, lang. B x 8
Interestingly, the "label" vords seem to appear throughout the VM regardless of Currier's language/Scribe. Unsure what this means but it is interesting nonetheless, seems to be that correspondence is independent of language.
I will have a look at the remaining 4 "labels", though it means I'll have to check about 200 vords one by one...
and then have a look at "qo" variations.


Can see you checked some y/o variations now they are just not in order.
