What Is a Rune Converter?

A rune converter changes Latin letters into approximate characters from historical runic writing systems. Enter text once to compare it in Elder Futhark, Younger Futhark, Short-Twig Futhark, Staveless Halsinge Futhark, Medieval Runerow, and Anglo-Saxon Futhorc.

Supported Rune Alphabets

Elder Futhark is the earliest widely attested Germanic rune row. Younger Futhark, including its long-branch and short-twig forms, was used in Viking Age Scandinavia. Anglo-Saxon Futhorc expanded the rune inventory for Old English and Old Frisian. Medieval runes developed later, while the staveless Halsinge forms are represented here with approximate Unicode characters because they do not have a complete standard Unicode set.

The converter works locally in your browser. It does not upload your text or call a translation service.

Which runes did Vikings use?

What happens to numbers?
Digits stay unchanged because these rune systems have no shared modern number mapping.
What happens to punctuation and spaces?
They stay unchanged, including line breaks, quotes, and apostrophes.
Can I enter Old Norse text?
