Statistical Properties of Two Folios of the Voynich Manuscript

The text of folios 79v and 80r of the Voynich manuscript, transliterated, is submitted to a quantitative analysis: 1. letter frequency count in word-initial, word-medial, word-final, line-initial and line-final position, and in isolation. 2. tentative phonetic categorization of letters into vowels and consonants using Sukhotin's algorithm [4, 5], 3. letter co-occurrence distribution.
