I strictly see it as a potential model to (hopefully) better understand the composition of the words.
  
  The same is truefor the Naibbe approach. It is (can be) a model that may tell us something about the text.

  
  Totally understand—and to that end, I completely agree that the slot approach is an incredibly powerful model. You could think of something like the Naibbe approach, or even the Matlach steganographic cipher approach, as downstream ways of exploring how slot grammars can be reconciled with typical natural language.

  Uh.. it's surely an error on my part, I did not generate the tables automatically but copied them by hand... I'll check and correct it, thanks for noticing.

  Just an editorial suggestion, if you use capitalised Eva, the result will look even better:
  
  "Sh" instead of "sh" : Sh 
  
  "cKh" instead of "ckh": cKh
