A family of grammars for Voynichese

[ReneZ]

Offhand, I would say that there seem to be many words that begin with d, but few that begin with ed. 

If my model is valid, the pair ed should occur "only" in the suffix part of the word, after a gallows or bench.  It should "never" occur before a gallows or a bench.

In my (only partially published) approach, I agree and I 'tentatively explain' it by positing that sequences of e are post-fixes of ch, Sh and the gallows. ('Tentatively explain' just means: 'model').

Example: chol can be 'split up' as ch - ol

chedy cannot be split up as ch - edy  but as che - dy
