"Another question. What were runes used for? And which uses still live till today?" THAT should be an easier question. Guesses were accepted too. OH! Diagram! Alec opened his journal and started scribbling down the information up on the blackboard. When it was put up like that in a diagram, it was actually easier to see how each of the different runes linked to one another. And it was a good way to remember... things. Things for OWLs which, speaking of, how awesome would it be if they had to smash a box as part of the Ancient Runes OWL?
...
Moving on... another question? A use for runes... "Professor?" he started, raising his hand in the air, "Since they're a set of alphabet, would they have had similar writing purposes to the ones we have?" Yeah... he was supposed to be answering the question, not answering with a question. "What I'm trying to say is, the runes were considered to be sacred, see. Something from the gods and Norse gods. So legends and sagas would be carved in stone... runestones... and they'd be preserved. And maybe the stories would be passed onto the following generations from the runestones. It would be... well... our equivalent of books, maybe. ... Except on stone."
... Also... "It's not really used now... but I guess you can still find a runestone and translate the runes and find out what the text says." ... Find a runestone... FIND a runestone... it sounded so easy.
... And did he even answer the question? And was this even correct?
