List of "weird" vords

[Mark Knowles]

I think if the text of the Voynich can indeed be split into two, null/filler text and non-null/real text then how does one do that? It seems to me that the repetitive text is going to constitute the null/filler text. It remains to workout how to partition the text. This seems easy at the extremes clearly identifying the most repetitive text as being filler text and the most abnormal text as real text. However, at the boundary between the two types of text it seems more difficult to determine which is which. But maybe it is only necessary to identify some of the real text even if identifying all of the real text is difficulty. This would mean focusing only on the most abnormal words. If the real text were encoded using a simple substitution cipher then applying frequency analysis on a sufficiently large quantity of real text would be enough to decipher it. If the real text used a more complex substitution cipher then deciphering it could be much harder. It would still remain to determine the algorithm used to generate the filler text. It also remains to determine with the filler text is spread relatively evenly throughout the pages of the manuscript or not. How would someone writing the text know when to include real words and when to have filler words or was it arbitrary? And how could someone reading back the text spot which were filler words and which real words?
