How I would I write Einheri and Einherjar in Younger Futhark (short twig). I read on an old post that it's ᛅᛁᚾᚼᛅᚱᛁ & ᛅᛁᚾᚼᛅᚱᛁᛅᛦ, is this correct?

Preview thumbnail for How exactly were the Elder Futhark runes used? I've read that they're both letters but also each symbol has its own meaning. If you wanted to write words like cattle, God or gift, do you use the symbol for the word or are you using the letters to spell out the word? image

Can you bind runes as letters? For example Tyr as t and so on?
