I want to translate the word for strength. Would I be better off finding the original word for it or translating the English word letter by letter?

I would like to rewrite chemical structures with the runes of old futhark, for a Design.
Since there is no C in this alphabet, this is quite difficult however.
I see there is a C in some newer version which basically looks like the apostroph ‘. For the high number of occurances this would look quite boring however, therefore I was wondering if there are any accounts of words like “anchor” “base” or “foundation” written in futhark.
Cheers,
Mike

In reply to Ashlin. In Elder Fuþark you can write it both ways. There was no set rule for direction of writing. Right to left or left to right, mirrored runes, they´re all possible.

In reply to Bernild. Bernhild, theoretically you may use the first and the last runes for alpha and omega. Not sure as for how beta would fit into this.

In reply to Alex. Basically, you will create a stave with runes by writing his name. Just be aware of a possible circumstances.

Hi guys,

This is a great website!

However I do require some assistance to make sure I get it right.

I would like to get my sons name as a tattoo in younger futhark runes.

His name is: Caspian

Thanks

Alex

I a quite new to all of this and I still don’t really know a lot about this alphabet. But I wanted to know about it because I am working on something, and I was wondering if it is possible to translate the Greek (or Latin) alphabet into runes. I don’t know if it makes any sense but, I don’t need the characters to be directly translated. But more like the meaning of the characters.(for instance how “alpha” is associated with first and well being the alpha ).

I basically need this for “Alpha” , “Beta” and “Omega”

In reply to Ashlin. Hello Ashlin. Younger or Elder Futhark?
