Clone of fuTarkuRnord. This version of the Futhark (den yngre långkvistiga Futharken [younger longtwig Futhark]) contains 16 letters (Runes). This Futhark is a simplified version of the elder 24-character Futhark (den urnordiska Futharken or urgermanska Futharken). The younger Futhark was developed between year 500 and 700. It was easier to carve in stone. There is also another version of the 16-character Futhark better suited for carving in wood, den kortkvistiga Futharken (shorttwiged Futhark). That isn’t part of this font. Most of the runes in the younger Futhark correspond with letters in the Latin alphabet. Those Runes you write using lowercase keys only. Don't use uppercase keys. Most of them don't work in this font. You will only get a small symbol indicating there is no Rune connected to that key. There are no Runes corresponding to numbers either. Some Runes are used for more than one Latin letter in this font. The s-rune is used for c, s and z in this font. If c have the sound value "k", use k instead. The k-rune is use for k, q and x in this font. "ks" might be better for x. The u-rune is used for u and w in this font. The i-rune is used for i and j in this font. Some of the runes can change sound value by adding a dot (stungna runor). The use of dotted runes is pretty late. It starts somewhere around year 1000. Before that the runes without dots represented more than one sound. “e” is a dotted i-rune in this font. “g” is a dotted k-rune in this font. “d” is a dotted t-rune in this font. “p” is a dotted b-rune in this font. “v” is a dotted f-rune in this font. “y” is a dotted u-rune in this font. “o” is an u-rune with two dots in this font. This isn’t historically correct. If you want to be as historically correct as possible, use a plain “u”. These uppercase keys have Runes connected to them The T-key will get you the "th"-Rune. This rune also represents the “dt”-sound. The R-key will get you the "R"-Rune (which is a different Rune than the "r"-Rune). The "R"-rune sometimes also is transcribed as 'z'. The "R"-Rune is generally only used at the end of a word. In this version of the Futhark there are two runes that represent “a”. The A-key give you one of these, the a-key the other one. The space-key will give you a dot that sometimes was used between words. The point-key will get you a double dot.
