In the default vord QOKEEDY the subject is [k]. The [k] is the core of the stem that is modified by the other elements. Specifically, it is modified by [ee] and by [qo].
The subject of a vord is usually a gallows, or bench, but in any case almost always a consonant corresponding to the [k] in QOKEEDY (and only rarely a vowel corresponding to [ee] with the consonant empty.)

Register or Login to view.We don't know how the MS was created, and for me, the option that it is a fair copy by scribes who did not understand what they were copying, remains a possibility. In such a case, errors are likely to be abundant.
Even in normal manuscripts that are perfectly legible, and that were copied by professional scribes, there are some typical mistakes like copying a piece of text twice in a row, or jumping to the wrong source line while copying. The scribe should have noticed this as he could understand what he was copying, but in the end he is human and can make mistakes.

The hard ending then provokes a vowel at the vord break: [n] is followed by [o] and the prefix [ol] appears.

- is the MS that has come down to us a copy from a draft?
- if it was a copy, could the scribe understand the text?

Qokeedy – qokaain = the word break is [y.k]
Qokaiin – olkaiin = the word break is [n.o]
Olkaiin – Olkeedy = the word break is [n.o]
Thus: qokeedy.qokaiin.olkaiin.olkeedy. And so on. The line of least resistance.
