copy of an older, barely legible manuscript?
#17
Or another example that shows the full potential scope, although I'm not so sure if it really fits here.


doiin choky shol qoky

The only difference between “choky” and “qoky” is one letter—if you look at the whole sequence from a distance, ‘doiin’ and “shol” also look similar. Maybe he wasn't sure what to write here... 

Of course, this is just a vague assumption in this case—but it fits with the theory.


And since cases like the first example occur very frequently, that would be very serious indeed.

But maybe it was just a short-sighted copyist... Big Grin
