Draft:Swedish Runes

The Swedish runes are a Swedish runic alphabet that were adapted from the medieval runes by Sven Salvenson for the purpose of reintroducing runes into Swedish writing by serving as an alternative to the much more common Latin script; as well as serving as a tool for Heathen religious practice.

"En dag började solen och vinden bråka om vem av dem som var starkast. De kunde inte enas, så de bestämde sig för att utmana varandra på en liten tävling. ”Ser du mannen där nere?” sade vinden till solen. ”Låt os se vem som kan slita av honom rocken snabbast.” Det gick solen med på. ”Börja du”, sade solen till vinden. Vinden drog efter andan och skickade iväg en så kraftig blåst mot mannen att hans rock nästan flög av honom direkt. Uppmuntrad av detta förtsatte vinden pusta med sin iskalla andedräkt. Men mannen höll tag i sina kläder och ju hårdare vinden blåste, desto mer svepte han plaggen kring sin kropp. Till slut tröttnade vinden och blev tvungen att vila sig. ”Nu är det min tur!” sade solen och jäste upp så mycket han kunde. De varma solstrålarna sken ner över landskapet där mannen gick och snart började han svettas. Det blev varmare och varmare. Till slut var det så hett att mannen inte stod ut längre, utan tog av sig rocken och hängde den på armen. Därmed hade solen visat att han var starkast, men kanske inte på det sätt som vinden räknat med!"

Translation
"One day the sun and the wind started arguing about which of them was the strongest. They couldn't agree, so they decided to challenge each other to a little competition. 'Do you see the man down there?' said the wind to the sun. 'Let's see who can rip off his coat the fastest.' The sun agreed. 'You begin,' said the sun to the wind. The wind caught his breath and sent such a strong gust at the man that his coat almost flew off him instantly. Encouraged by this, the wind continued to blow its icy breath. But the man held on to his clothes and the harder the wind blew, the more he wrapped the clothes around his body. Finally the wind got tired and had to rest. 'Now it's my turn!' said the sun, shining as much as he could. The warm rays of the sun shone down on the landscape where the man walked and soon he began to sweat. It got hotter and hotter. Finally, it was so hot that the man couldn't stand it anymore, but took off his coat and hung it on his arm. Thus the sun had shown that he was strongest, but perhaps not in the way that the wind expected!"This is a version of The North Wind and the Sun from Aesop's Fables. It is known as "Solen och vinden" (The Sun and the Wind) or "Vem var starkast?" (Who is strongest?) in Swedish.

Note: A runic alphabet called Dalecarlian runes, or Dalrunor, was used in the Swedish province of Dalarna/Dalecarlia until the 20th century, mainly to write the Elfdalian language, which is closely related to Swedish. They could also be used to write Swedish.
