Commentary
For detailed information on word separation and syllabic punctuation, see Script. Only rows of dots (
, 
, most often 
) function as word separators (the presence of separators in PU-1 being highly dubious). 
represents dotted grid lines. See also space. Single (mostly short) strokes (together with single dots) are reserved for syllabic punctuation. Such short strokes being situated in the upper and lower area of the line rather than in the middle are found almost exclusively in the area of Verona. Note that puncts inscribed into letters are treated as parts of ligatures, and do not enter into the above statistic. 
is attested twice as a delimiter (see Non-script notational systems). In NO-15 and SL-2.2, the separators mark different inscriptions or parts of inscriptions rather than words or syllables.
