Of course there's the fact that the Voynich annotator only added a tittle to one of the two occurrences of May....

By the way, does anyone have an idea why this might be there? (Gallica currently appears to be down so I cannot look at the MS). Does the writer "cap" other y's? Is it like the two dots on ij? Does it indicate a difference in pronunciation?

I based the list off the headings of the journal, where may is written with the diacritic. However, in the main text i.e. "on the 10th of may, 10 sacks of grain to [...]" may is written without the diacritic, which I think is interesting in itself. The diacritic may is on folio 22r
