Very. only problem I see is 2 g's. When there are duplicate letters you tend to put just 1.

Are we just using a basic symbol substitution swapping out latin letters for runes? Or are we transliterating english sounds into their approximately equivalent sounds?

For example, if I was going to reproduce OP's message using the pronunciations prescribed here: http://www.sunnyway.com/runes/pronunciation.html

It would look something like this:

ᛇᚠ ᛁᚢ ᚲᚨᚾ ᚱᛁᛞ ᚦᛇᛊ

ᛁᚢ ᚨᛉ ᚾᚨᛏ

ᛖ ᚾᛁᚷᛉ

sorry, I meant

>transliterating english sounds into their approximately equivalent runes?

also at second glance I think ᚾᛁᚷᛉ should be ᚾᛇᚷᛉ

With the You, I write the Y with ᛃ

And this.

>ᛇᚠ ᛁᚢ ᚲᚨᚾ ᚱᛁᛞ ᚦᛇᛊ

>ᛁᚢ ᚨᛉ ᚾᚨᛏ

>ᛖ ᚾᛁᚷᛉ

"ᛁ" was used strictly for vowels near /i/. In "you", the first phoneme is the consonant /j/. So, for the first phoneme of "you", you want "ᛃ".

"ᛉ" historically sounded /z/ or /r/ depending on the time or place. If you use it for /r/ then you have two runes for that sound, ᚱ and ᛉ, but nothing for /z/.

I see what he's doing, though. He's going to a whole nother level – no longer just transliterating, but also applying grammatical constructions.

He's using "ᛉ" not just for a letter, but for it's historical function within a word – it's not just "z" (or "r"), but rather germannic masculine -z, which occurs in executive/descriptive nouns like nigger.

In english, it's modern form is "-er", so he's using it phonetically and to follow its use in grammar.

"if you can read this you are not a nigger"

Did I get that right? I actually can't read the runes it's just obvious what it says by the size of the words.

At first I thought the last word was faggot but it can't be because it ends with what's obviously an "R"
