I understand that most people didn't actually write with the Elder futhark but I also have a last name that starts with the letter G which the younger futhark does not have

I am from in a program for Scandinavian Studies and I see these every now and again to see how people pronounce-butcher these. Most are WRONG.
YOU are one of the few who pronounce these mostly correctly! ❤
(*Raidho is pronounced rye-tho)
Really awesome video though and thanks for pronouncing the rest correctly!!!❤
