Huth's reading of f116v: "gâs" as "ganz" confirmed in medieval German corpus
#36
   

Why not try using simple methods and explanations for once?
The “g,” as seen in poor-quality photos, copies, or transcripts. For example, the NSA report by Petersen. Polofsky.
I believed it for a long time too, but the sentence just doesn't make sense.

   

Just imagine that Writer 1 writes the letters close together and Writer 2 writes them a little further apart.
In both cases, you can still recognize the letter “z.” It’s the one with the two curves.
Basically the same thing.
If you look at the “g” in VM, it doesn’t have an upper curve, but it does have a straight back.

   

So the sentence is written just as it’s spoken.
For grammar, however, a small correction is needed

   
   
   

Now the sentence means:
“so the curse takes you too” or, near Vienna, “so the curse takes you in”

Jetzt bedeutet der Satz:
"so nimt der Fluch Dich auch" oder nähe Wien, "so nimt der Fluch Dich an"

"so nimez as mich o" (typisch Bayrisch)
For these reasons, it will never be a “g” for me.
