I’ve taken up learning Icelandic and they have the same rule of thumb with the emphasis on the first syllable, which is hard to get through sometimes.

The pronunciation probably would have differed per region, right?

Thank you for this this is part of honoring the runes we should pronounce it correctly

Very interesting, I agree completely. As a sidenote: intfuar would be entfahr!, the imperativ of entfahren in modern German, meaning to slip out.

And again the name Erich still exist in Dutch as Erik or english as Eric.

Again Dagobert is probably the modern dagbert.

Actually quit a lot stil exist in Dutch like Alfred wich probably comes from Alfrik. And Arnold wich probably comes from arngôt

U talk about the fact that the more southern you go the more high deutsch it gets. I think Limburg is the perfect example their a blend between Dutch and High German, having a different G and a lot of weurds sounding like high german. Its almost like dutch when a southern German speaks it.

As a Dutchman your channel is very interesting. I love History aspecially from the frissians, saxsons and Burgundy's. Cause hey thats the Dutch history.

I love your content! In regards to Heilung, will you be translating more of their music?

why is modern german not a mix of both ? even Hessian dialects are very different to NHG

Could you please read the Saxon Baptismal Vow in its original? It's from a transitional period when Frisian, English, and Saxon weren't mutually unintelligible yet and was likely composed in Utrecht (Frisia) for converting Saxons and might've been made by English missionaries.

Sounds convincing and possesses a sound aesthetic of accentual rhythm. For a layman like me, in this case these are the signs of authenticity.

I had my own experience as an oathbreaker. When i was a kid, i was at a baseball game in town, and i was so hungry but had no money. I promised to help clean up after the game for some food. Well, i had my food, and then i left and went home. Well i lived in a small town so they knew who i was and where i lived so the concession owner showed at my house, told my mom what happened and was told to go with her and help like i promised. Even though i did do it. The loss of trust as a consequence of my actions still sits with me all these years later. And i learned that a man is only as good as his word is trusted.

Scott can you please help me find out how I can peruse more education on Runeology? I would like to specialize in this subject thank you I understand that some of this information has been lost and or hidden

Thank you so much 🙏💚🧚 very interesting 😊 I work with rune for my ancestors ....and cause I love to learn but with just books it is not easy 😅 and I am french and prononciations not the same based...

What a nasty attitude.

I´m wandering yet about the sound of algiz

Do you know anything about my name, “Emery”? From what I’ve learned it’s a variation of Emmeric, earliest recorded in the domesday book of 1066. Perhaps derived from a Saxon Chieftain “Almericus”. I don’t know how accurate any of that is because there is few sources. But it seems like it would be down your alley of expertise.

Man. My ears perked up when I heard them talking about authors. I hope they do bring that up in another video. These videos are exactly what this community needs. Well done.

The algorithm guided me to your videos and I’m here to stay. As an English man with strong Anglo-Saxon (Mercian) roots I am more drawn towards the more Germanic Saxon side of heathenism rather than the Scandinavian Norse side. Now I am going to feast on your videos! Wes Hal!

Lovely, thank you for sharing. I also had to slip from the rope that was around my neck when I came down from the tree, screaming.

Is there more that you could read?

Thank you

I personally have doubts about the y where there is a g. As if it’s anglo-saxon. Is there any reason for it?

This was really helpfull, thank you so much!🌸

Very nice, thank you. A few remarks: "g" was more of a voiced velar, and h as in maht a voiceless velar as in Bach, Loch Ness. Before i, e,this "g" may have be a voiced palatal as in Southern Dutch, and h voiceless palatal as the German ich-laut

Funny how people throw real b.s. into casual conversation, when it isn’t even required, hmmm? The opinions of faceless strangers is important enough to immediately denigrate one’s own intelligence by telling a Vapid lie. Ever notice this…? I’m gonna watch a bit more ( I’m @2:14 ) … Youngsters can also be given a certain…latitude sometimes. You bounce your stance off the world, the world bounces it back, this is how we grow and learn.

He is knowledgeable but condescending unfortunately he is lost in his own bubble.

Unfortunately we don't know anything about stress and intonation. We all tend to read an ancient text like an incantation. People always tried to talk relaxed and without strain. Let's cuddle our cats, purring Old Saxon.

Fascinating

This is fascinating. Kudos to her showing you hospitality and you for the translation and creating an archive of the runestone's history for future generations.

For a second I thought you were speaking finnish 😂

Thank you for this explanation! However, I cringe whenever people say 'Dee changes to Tee' instead of saying the sound D changes to sound T. Dee's and Tee's are letters and letters are sometimes very different from the sounds they represent. Jackson Crawford makes the same logical error in his videos.

I'm curious, what is your native language? I think this might be very inaccurate for several reasons and I'd like to explain to you why. But I'm not sure ofcourse because no one really knows what it sounded like. Best regards.

Anyone thinking a discussion of magic is childish, should be reminded thst Sir James Frazer's monumental work 'The Golden Bough' was subtitled 'A Study in Religion and Magic'.

So ash, eth, thorn and wyn are not part of this system? Confusing.

One thing that I think is so cool about Nesso is that I knew absolutely fuck all about it being a chant nor it being about worms and snakes and healing the body from parasites and illness. And yet I listened to this song alot when writing a scene for a story I'm working on where the main character is visiting a shaman and has a soul travelling experience with snakes and worms as his guides. During the trip, his body decays and is eaten by worms and he cannot return to his physical form until he has finished the journey with the snakes. Of course, the hissing in the song and how the movement of the sound mimicking a zigzagging snake did tip me off that this was a snake song, but i didnt know it was a healing chant. It is hoenstly so cool how much Heilung are able to communicate with music and atmosphere that is transcends language. That's awesome. Also, I'll definitely sub to your channel for more videos like this. I am a total language imbecile, and yet i find them so fascinating and try to learn and understand languages in my own totally wrong and not scholarly ways. Mostly so i can build fictitious languages for my stories. Its always nice to come across someone who is smart and knows what they are talking about! Thank you for making videos like this! They are both entertaining AND informative! :D

This song makes me cry so hard every time I hear it. It's so beautiful. Thanks for this.
