Gregory Ryan (ID: 000000dc53991872) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 08/11/2022 It is missing plenty of the runes in the futhorc and many of the conversions are incorrect. The following runes are missing: - ᚦ (thorn, þ(th)) - ᛇ (ih, ȝ) - ᛝ (ing, ŋ(ng)) - ᛟ (oedil, œ(oe)) - ᚪ (æsc, æ(ae)) - ᛠ (ear, ea) - ᚸ (gar, g) - ᛡ (ger, j) The following conversions(latin to futhorc) are incorrect: - th > ᛏᚻ (it should be ᚦ) - ng > ᚾᚷ (it should be ᛝ) - ea > ᛖᚪ (it should be ᛠ) - z > ᚴ (it should be ᛋ) - v > ᚹ (it should be ᚠ) - q > ᛢ (it should be ᚳᚹ) - sh > ᛋᚻ (it should be ᛋᚳ) - y as in /j/ > ᚣ (it should be ᛡ) - j or g as in /ddʒ/ > ᛡ (it should be ᚷᚳ, ᚷᚷ, or ᚷ) There are many more examples(especially with the futhorc to latin conversion), but I already spent an hour or two on studying to double check that I'm not wrong, so I don't feel like adding more
