Quote:1) 49% of first vords of all paragraphs of botanical folios are unique.So, in botanical folios, first words of first paragraphs are twice "more unique" (sorry!) than first words of non-first paragraphs. Is that OK for a filler?
2) As already indicated in the title post, 66% of first vords of first paragraphs (or, which is the same thing, first vords of folios) of botanical folios are unique.
3) 31% of first vords of non-first (second, third etc.) paragraphs of botanical folios are unique.

What is the Voynich text is nonsense - but the image aren't?
I've just finished re-Reading Carruthers art of memory and her ideas on memonics have stuck.
So imagine that every single image is encoded, and possibly the labels, into a mnemonic structure. A sort of visual shorthand. But the bulk of the text is filler to "throw you off the scent".
Possible? Of course it is. Probable? Hmm.
