I wouldn't say that the question of possible syllables is off topic. If you want to determine whether lines in the VMS are structured according to any meter (hexameter or not), then the definition of individual word segments is essential. Analyses such as those presented by @quimqu in post #71 are then a first step toward recognizing possible rhythms. Prefixes, for example, seem to be significantly longer than stems and suffixes.

The goal may be to break down a few random lines (Quire 20?) in such a way that it becomes apparent whether or not there is a repeating pattern ( long / short ) after the (supposedly) recognized word segments.
