Here's the problem though. If we assume that recurring parts of Voynichese words are grammatical bits, then what's left for the semantic bits? In other words, if we omit the parts of Voynichese that may be grammatical, then is there enough body and variety left to express actual vocabulary?

I do have one idea that may perhaps shed light on the rigidity and lack of flexibility of glyph positioning, which is a huge problem as you absolutely correctly point out: Not in the Hebrew script, but in the Arabic and Syriac scripts, certain letters are always *unconnected* with the following letter. Perhaps some of the glyphs in the ms that we see as ending words, are simply unconnected to the following glyph but still part of the same word. Now this does not solve all of the problems with this issue, not at all, not by a long shot. But it does offer one possible explanation for why *some* glyphs *always* appear to be word-final, whether they actually always are or not.
