	/okeey/ occurs 178 times in the
VMs.  So, is the VMs in English?  ;-)

	Gabriel invented EVA, after all.  He did just say that this 
sort of reasoning is unreliable.

	You do have a point, though.  It would be interesting to 
consider what phonetic and other values the glyphs might 
have had at the time.

	Capelli has abbreviations that are Voynich-like.  /y/ is 
quite like the abbreviation for the common Latin ending -us 
.  Trandechino showed a glyph resembling /qo/ ; I forget 
what the value of it was, it might have been [s] .

> So, can anybody tell, what does this "dairol" mean in India?

	/dairol/ looks more like 8airoe , I think.  I don't know 
what the correct pronunciation would have been for a 
15th-century Italian Renaissance script.
