Write in Runic: Transliterate Text to Runes with Ease
Write in Runic is an iPhone app developed by Maarten Trompper that allows users to transliterate text to runes based on a phonetic translation. This app is a valuable resource for rune pronunciation and learning about the various runic alphabets.
With Write in Runic, users can explore the sounds of words rather than their meanings. The app supports several major runic families, including Elder Futhark runes (Common Germanic Fuþark), Swedish-Norwegian Fuþąrk (Rök; Younger Futhark, short twig), Danish Fuþąrk (Younger Futhark, long branch), Anglo-Saxon runes (Anglo-Frisian Fuþorc), and Medieval rune alphabets.
In addition to these runic families, Write in Runic also supports other scripts such as Ogham (Old Irish script), Old Turkic (Göktürk script / Orkhon script / Orkhon-Yenisey), Old Hungarian runes (rovásírás), Armanen runes (Armanen Futharkh), Gothic, Old Italic, and Glagolitic (Old Slavonic "Glagolitsa", sometimes known as Slavic runes).
Text is transcribed to runes based on a phonetic representation, whether it be English, Russian, or language agnostic. Whether you're a language enthusiast, a student of ancient scripts, or simply curious about runes, Write in Runic offers a user-friendly interface and a comprehensive collection of runic alphabets to explore.
