Translate text between English and the fictional runic language from the game Tunic. Decode mysterious glyphs or encode messages in the game's unique writing system.
Tunic is an action-adventure game featuring a unique constructed language written in runic glyphs. The language uses phonetic symbols that represent English sounds, creating an encrypted writing system that players must decipher throughout the game. Each glyph corresponds to specific phonetic sounds, allowing players to translate in-game text and uncover hidden secrets.
This translator converts between standard English text and Tunic's runic script using the game's phonetic mapping system. When translating to Tunic language, English words are broken down into their phonetic components and matched to corresponding glyphs. When translating from Tunic, the glyphs are decoded back into their English phonetic equivalents. The translator supports both the standard runic alphabet and special symbols found throughout the game.

For best results when translating to Tunic runes, use simple, clear English words. The phonetic system works best with standard pronunciation.

The 'Include Translation Hints' option adds phonetic guides that can help you understand how the translation works, making it easier to learn the language system yourself.
This translator is based on the phonetic runic system used in the game Tunic. While it follows the game's established glyph-to-sound mappings, some interpretations may vary as the complete language system has nuances discovered by the player community.
This translator helps decode the runic text, but many Tunic puzzles require additional context, spatial reasoning, or understanding of game mechanics beyond simple translation. It's a tool to help with the language barrier, not a complete puzzle solver.
Standard Runes are the common glyphs found throughout the game. Manual Pages Style mimics the appearance of text in the instruction manual. Golden Path Glyphs represent the special symbols found in late-game areas. The core phonetic meaning remains the same across styles.
The Tunic language is phonetic, so the same sound can sometimes be represented in slightly different ways. Additionally, some in-game text uses stylistic variations or abbreviations. The translator aims for phonetic accuracy while maintaining readability.
