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.
Already discussed this- kzread.info/dash/bejne/mJt8rbmJo9HMhZs.htmlsi=VJ-cskm_WVHfS_0P
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.
I don't look at this is as a negative experience. You still fulfilled your oath, even if your parents had to get involved as a kid. You learned from this.
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... I was forgot for ''th''... I will listen again , pronunce with you... and put your video on my playlist favorit 🫶 Sorry for my lil' english too.😊
No problem at all. I'm glad I could help :)
Thank you from NORTH Denver Colorado thank you so much
Appreciate it.
What a nasty attitude.
You missed the joke. It's not that serious
I´m wandering yet about the sound of algiz
"el-geez" The "g" here is like the "g" in "go," not as in "general." The sound itself is just [z]. Later on, it went through rhoticism and became [R].

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!
I appreciate that! Enjoy!
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?
The palatalized <g> also appears in Old Frisian. It also shows up in Niederdeutsch/Plaat, which is where the OS speaking area was. As far as the Heliand, it appears that there are instances where palatalization occurs based on the alliteration: geng thes gēres gital. Iohannes quam. In this case, it's the geng that has the palatalized sound to alliterate with geres and Iohannes. Either way, I also found instances where the so-called palatalized <g> alliterated with <g> + a back vowel. So, it would be more of a plosive or fricative (if ɣ is favored). I basically look at it like this--if someone wants to sound more northern when pronouncing the <g>, just palatalize it before front vowels. Otherwise, just pronounce it like a voiced velar fricative to sound more Dutch or a voiced stop to sound more (Old High) German.
thanks for responding. Your work deserves more attention.
@@faramund9865 Thanks. I used to try and promote the channel quite a bit, but it wasn't really going anywhere. I'll pick it back up again soon.
This was really helpfull, thank you so much!🌸
Happy to help
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
Thanks. Yes, I'm aware. I speak German. I've always had an issue pronouncing the voiced velar fricative (especially in initial position). The <h> in maht is pronounced [x]. You can hear that in 3:13 and in 4:54. The palatalized g is just [j], according to Rauch (1992). The "ich" laut sound [ç] is only before front vowels. You can hear this at 8:46. For whatever reason, I pronounced the the ach-laut sound in <sehsta>, which should have been the ich-laut [ç]. Either way, thanks for your comment. I've mulled the idea over of redoing another reading, but I just haven't gotten around to it yet. I also did a video on OS pronunciation here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/ZoGGzdSNgJWtgdo.html

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.
Really wasn't trying to sound condescending. Sorry if I offended you.
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.
So any and all academic articles which discuss primary, secondary, and even tertiary stress are untenable and unreliable? K.
@@scottt.shellcontinentalger2464 Only things we know are reliable. They can't satisfy our demand for reliability. Our imagination is ready to add some more.
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.
Thanks so much! She really is a wonderful person!
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 simplify it on purpose. Not everyone understands, e.g., "a voiced alveolar stop becomes an unvoiced alveolar stop."
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.
My native language is irrelevant. My guide is based on Rauch's "The Old Saxon language." It's based on IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet). So, unless you can explain how my pronunciation is incorrect from a historical Germanic perspective in terms of allophones and phonemes, I don't see how it could be wrong based on the available evidence. It's definitely not "very" inaccurate. Perhaps I have a couple idiosyncrasies here and there, but it's still pretty damn close, imo. And so we're clear: we're talking about the northern dialects from the 9th century in northern Germany, right? The palatalized g- is just a more northern pronunciation as opposed to a voiced velar stop (as seen in, e.g., old Rhenish Franconian).
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.
something again: this 3 commercial aetts are not complete, there are more runes out this order like Quertra, Chosma, Yr, Xerxes, Vaugal, in german: Ätheraz, Östhäle, Überaz, Eulaz, Auguz, Oakuz, Chur, etc. ... :) and thaz why I chose to complete it (but only) in german ^^
ᛇ - this is correctly called "Ei(h)waz" [Aihwasz] - it's the old german "ei" [ai] - note that english people sometimes write an U for an A, so it's the german "ai", not the english "a" - this is very importatnt - and yes, this [ai] is in english the"I" (for I am f.e.) - but Isa is not the "I"/[ai] - it's "iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiih" like u say "me" - not "my"! - hope this will help you my dear :)
Are the names from this series only saxon? Or anglo, jutish, Frisian ?
Only Old Saxon

Very important! A lot of missunderstanding because pronunciation issues... Maybe you can help me out? The elder futhark is as I know the very first writing form. It switched the letters "a" and "o". The viking or edda futhork proves that. You know why it switched? ...if you pronounce the "orion belt" with elder futhark runes you get "arian belt" or "aryan belt" in the constellation of the charioteer 🤔
Very interesting analysis, I'm definitely subscribing for more - This video was extremely repetitive, I don't think you needed to repeat your translations as much as you did
Hello Prof. Shell. Thanks very much for this video. it has been very helpful to me! I have three questions I hope you would kindly answer for me. I have been unable to find the answers: 1. did Elder Futhark have both long and short sounds for all of its vowels? 2. is the "a" of the letter name ansuz long or short or neither? (you had said in your video it is a back vowel) 3. is eihwaz (ae) a vowel or diphthong? Is the initial sound of the letter name long or short? With many thanks!
Great questions, Pete. The following refers to early Proto-Germanic times and the Elder Futhark: 1. For *īsa, yes long and short. 2. *ūruz also represented both long and short. 3. The *ansuz rune only represented short "a." Later on, we get long "a" through the process of aŋh > ā̃h, but in the earliest times, we did not have a long "a" in Proto-Germanic. 4. eihwaz (ǣ) was a monophthong (like "a" as in American English "apple."). 5. The ōþila rune could only represent a long "o" (technically the sound is like the long "o" in Midwestern "caught" or "coffee.") There was no short "o" in PGmc. 6. For ehwaz, this actually only represented short "e." Later on, ǣ (from eihwaz) became a long "e" sound. Then ehwaz could represent both short and long "e." Essentially, all questions pertaining to Proto-Germanic depend on the chronology. But, those are some basic answers to your questions.
THANK YOU!!!! With best wishes for your continuing success!!!! @@scottt.shellcontinentalger2464
Slavs have writings in Runa and it is part of Slavic Vedas. Also it is call “Book of Light”.
Yes! More of this stuff please.
