These Russian prepositions: k, s, v

About ten years ago I applied Sukhotin's vowel algorithm
recursively on a Voynich sample. EVA <o> came as a vowel,
and so did <ol>. That suggested to me that <o> = "o" and
<l> = "u". It's buried somewhere in the archive, towards
the very beginning.
If so <lol> is "uou". Now "uou" is Limousin for "egg".
Not that I believe that the VMs is written in Limousin
(I don't want to have uou all over my face).
