And “fix”/ "six" (if the f is written as a long stroke, then it is likely that the ‘s’ is also written as a long stroke).
You seem to be unaware of how a single scribe often used different shapes for a single letter. You should really consider having a look at some actual manuscripts, as Koen suggested above.
I also recommend reading "The Palaeography of Gothic Manuscript Books" by Albert Derolez. It's a small book, written very clearly and well illustrated. If you have an interest in the subject, you will find it useful.
