Latin to Gothic script transcriber and instant dictionary
Created by 27dudek27sep27
Transcribe from the Latin script to the Gothic script, as in, the actual historic Gothic language of the Germanic family, the script thereof invented by Wulfila (lower case only here)
þ ƕ <-- copy these for easy use, or use "y" and "v", respectively
Also, numbers of up to three digits are accurately transcribed to their corresponding Gothic letters, using two hyphens "-" surrounding the numerals, as shown below (now without glitchings when it comes to new lines!):
- -4- --> •𐌳•
- -27- --> •𐌺𐌶•
- -274- --> •𐍃𐌿𐌳•
Find single words in Gothic by entering a word in all caps
- GOAT --> 𐌲𐌰𐌹𐍄𐍃
- ACCORDING --> 𐌰𐍆𐌰𐍂
Typing a word in all caps with an asterisk (*) after it shows the Latin transliteration and part of speech, with declension/conjugation information
- GOAT* --> gaits (m. I)
- ACCORDING* --> afar + dat (according to)
Can't remember a certain declension rule? Simply type the capital first letter of the gender ("M", "N" or "F"), an underscore ("_"), the stem ("A", "I", "I/O", "JA", "JO", "N", "ND", "O", "R" or "U") and a question mark ("?", "*?" if you want it displayed in the Latin script) with no spaces to show the list of endings for that rule. For a more specific result, add the case ("NOM", "ACC", "GEN" or "DAT"), and to narrow it down even more, add another underscore and the grammatical number ("_SING" or "_PLUR")
- M_A? --> -𐍃, -𐍉𐍃; --, -𐌰𐌽𐍃; -𐌹𐍃, -𐌴; -𐌰, -𐌰𐌼
- N_JA*?ACC --> -i, -ja
- F_R?NOM_PLUR --> -𐍂𐌾𐌿𐍃
Note: as there are two different forms of the masculine -Ja stem (short and long), accessing them here is accomplished as shown below
- LONG_M_JA?GEN --> -𐌴𐌹𐍃, -𐌾𐌴
- SHORT_M_JA*?DAT_SING --> -ja
Quick adjective declension access coming soon, maybe one day even quick verb conjugation access!
