In what way is [shod] or [shol] or [sholdy] like [chear]?

The glyphs used are similar to each other. [ch] is similar to [sh], [o] is similar to [a] and [l] is similar to [r]. If you can replace one glyph with a similar one you can also replace all glyphs with similar ones.

So they have an underlying connection, that the relationships between glyphs is more than superficial?

One feature of the glyphs of the VMS is, that in many cases one stroke is enough to change one character into another one. [r] and [l] are distinguishable glyphs. But in the sense that they differ in only one stroke both glyphs have the same start stroke in common and only differ in the second stroke. A description of what I mean is described by Currier in the section "The nature of the symbols" in You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.: " We have the fact that you can make up almost any of the other letters out of these two symbols i and e ... These letters: [o] , [d] , [y], [s] all seem to start with a [e]-curve, which was made first ... The forms all have counterparts starting with [i] : [j] , [l] , [r] etc." (You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.).

My initial impression is that there are far too many words beginning with <e>, also words beginning <i> which never or almost never actually occur, along with too many unusual words and a lack of common words like <chedy> and <shedy> (for a B language section).
