What is the vow being spoken of in Leviticus 27:2?

Answer From The Annual Reading Schedule - Week 30 Notes For Leviticus: I'm not 100% certain, but it appears to be some kind of vow of setting a person apart or dedicating a person to Yahweh perhaps. The reason I guess this is what the vow is about is because in the following verses we see a valuation in silver being given for persons of various ages for both male and female. That seems to imply that since the person cannot be offered in the same way that an animal offering is given, perhaps they are valued in silver and that amount of silver is given instead. Of course, however, I do not know if this is accurate or that I understand this kind of vow fully.
