As long as the Codex’s language remains uncracked, little can be said about its lexicology, let alone phonetics.
However, we can speculate a little on its grammar and/or morphology.
It is easy to notice that the most frequent word in the Codex is the one consisting of a single “letter” that looks like a cursive “w” with a dot inside its rightmost curve. This word is amazingly frequent and belongs to a few exceptionally short ones. This means, it is sure to be from a closed word class. It can be an auxiliary, a conjunction (most likely, “and”), an article, or a preposition (most likely, “of”).
My intuition tells me, it has many chances to turn out to be “of”.
P.S. As I was already on my way to submitting this post, I followed the link to Jordan’s blog entry. He has managed to trace some true Seraphiniana pearls! I leave my post unchanged, but my senses are now very, very confused.
