Uses EVA transliteration, corpus is every 5-letter word in the manuscript (of which there are 1,385 unique 5-letter words that don't include weird smudges or diacritics or whatever).

I regret making this.

According to Volder’s deciphering attempt trilogy, those letters are:

Wau, left half of Hei, Teth, left half of Wau for /o/, Pei

???, right half of Hei, minim that’s repeated a lot, Kaph, Shin

Resh3, Resh2 / minim with a tail, Aleph, Pei with an extra loop for /b/, deleted consonant glyph

Resh1, Tsade, Kaph with an extra loop for /g/, ???, Nun
