Marginalia in Voynichese?

[Jorge_Stolfi]

While researching the balneology section, I noticed that some words were noticeably different from others on the same page The word kchedykary is written in a handwriting style similar to the rest of the section, but the lines are thin and about the same width, which is unusual for pen writing but resembles fountain pen writing.[...] What do you think or know about it?

One possible explanation is that the Scribe re-trimmed his quill after writing the first line -- precisely because the lines were coming out thin, and he wanted to have the same "font" as the rest of the section.  Namely, he wanted a broad nib that created broad strokes in the NW-SE direction, and thin ones in the NE-SW direction.

On the other hand,when he had to write text in cramped spaces -- like the nymph labels, and the text sal okeedy daly ... inside the side loop of the "water slide", he sharpened the pen so that he could write smaller letters.

I have another possible explanation, but some people are allergic to it, so I will not mention it here.  Anyway I think it is less likely to explain this particular feature than the one above.

All the best, --stolfi
