Talk:Birch bark letter no. 292

message: I read from a Finnish source that it is written in Baltic See Finns runic letters, with influence of cyrillic alphabets. I don't touch the article because I'm not qualified to take part in this and I don't know the right terms either, but I write this as a hint for someone who knows what he's doing here.
Regards to the someone

replies: text: I believe this is the only Finnic text from this period. How then can someone characterize the letters, when there is nothing to compare with? -- Petri Krohn 00:49, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

message: If someone has succeeded in interpreting this text in modern Finnish, surely it is possible to furnish those who do not speak that language with an English translation? — mark ✎ 18:50, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: Are the English translations even close? Especially the 2nd and the 3rd line of Khelimsky's suggestion: Khelimsky seems to have intepreted 'nuoli säihä(?) nuoli ambu' more like "Arrow flashing arrow shot" and 'Jumala suduni ohjavi (johavi?)' he interpreted more like "Doom-God guides"? Does anyone know more? Clarifer 10:51, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: The English translations are very close to the modern Finnish translations given in the article. I have no idea if English/modern Finnish translations are close to the archaic originals.Punainen Nörtti 18:40, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Translation? 

message: As a native Finnish speaker, I don't understand at all where the "ten" is coming from?  The "i" is nowhere near the Finnic word, at least the current ones: kymmenen, kümme.  Hungarian is tiz, I think.  The letter has "i".  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:18F:600:E20:20A8:4EC2:9A10:E525 (talk) 00:44, 28 August 2016 (UTC)

message: Yeliseyev's iohovi is interpreted as johtaa. Khelimsky's ohjavi is interpreted as ohjaa. Yet in Kalevala-prose Finnish which most Finns are familiar with just like English-speakers are familiar with the archaic/theatric thou and thee, there exist much more fitting versions: johtavi and ohjavi (yes, the latter is 1:1) – for example Säkkijärven polkka has the word johtavi in its lyrics. It's just a bit off-putting that this isn't mentioned. --Kuukelo (talk) 12:21, 11 November 2019 (UTC)
