Hi Kjarden. Unfortunately, I would not be able to grant the right to use the script of this converter outside The Viking Rune site. To be sure, anyone may publish a link to it.

To all: thank you so much for your questions. However, comments to this page will be closed. I hope the answers given above will help in case you need advice.

Greetings!
I would like to humbly request if i may acquire your rune converter script for our website. Of course all credits given to your author(s) and any accompanying text you may require for use. I would even be happy to have a link to the Viking Rune. Please let me know if it is possible to use your script and link to the Viking Rune, or if you would allow a link only. I will then take the information to the elder council. Thank You for your time. BE well and Safe Journey~

Hi Scott. Runic writing system, unlike hyeroglyphs, cannot represent a whole word with only one symbol, it is an alphabet in which one sign usually corresponds to one sound.

My middle name is “Thor” and I was looking for his symbol to use for the translation. THanks.

Hi Tristan. To write Latin phrases in runes, use Medieval Runes.

Hi Daniel. If you use English letters to write down Chinese or Arabic, you won’t be able to do it properly, since modern English writing system is not fit for this task. Same applies to runes and modern English words. There are ways to adapt the runic system for modern languages, one of which I used in this converter. There is no “accurate” way to write modern English words with runes, as there is no “accurate” way to write down Chinese words with the letters of the Roman alphabet. Others may always state they know a better or more correct way.

First off, great job on the site. Now to my question. I used the runescript translator to translate the meaning of my name (Daniel) which is “God is my judge”. I wanted to know if the runescript is accurate? Is that exactlly how it would be spelled if converted into runescript? I just want to make sure becasue I want to get a stag tattoo (kind of like the jagermeister logo, haha) with the meaning of my name in runescript below. It came to mind when I was looking for the meaning of the stag, which brought to an anglo – saxon page. Another question, do you know the anglo-saxon meaning of the stag? Thanks so much.
