The ‘Letter’, ‘Name Celtic’, and ‘Name English’ is taken from the chart on page 12 of “A Druid’s Herbal of Sacred Tree Medicine” by Ellen Evert Hopman. This is for the ‘standard’ 20 characters of the alphabet. For the forfeda, I’ve used information received from Spirit of Old in England. The horizontal and vertical characters are from the BLF (Beth-Luis-Fearn) font. There ARE differences between the two fonts. I only plan to use the BLF font!!!! The five characters of the forfeda are based on information found in the Wikipedia article found here. The horizontal and vertical orientations are also based on this article. (2019-02-18 I have deleted the BLN font from my system, which is why the glyphs are not showing above.) (2019-03-11 Re-added the BLN font Added info re the forfeda) Links: fonts https://www.fontspace.com/curtis-clark/celtic-ogham Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ogham Spirit of Old http://http://www.spiritofold.co.uk/ 2019-03-11 @ 11:12 /media/jeff/J12801P/Documents/Druidry/Ogham/Ogham Fonts.odt Page 1 of 2 Group Name Aicme Beithe Letter Name Celtic Name English Font Horizontal Font Vertical B Beith Birch H H b b L Luis Rowan D D l l F Fearn Alder T T f f S Saille Willow C C s s N Nion Ash Q Q n n Aicme hÚatha Letter Name Celtic Name English Font Horizontal Font Vertical H Huath Hawthorn B B h h D Dair Oak L L d d T Tinne Holly F F t t C Coll Hazel S S c c Q Quert Apple N N q q Aicme Muine Letter Name Celtic Name English Font Horizontal Font Vertical M Muin Vine (Blackberry) M M m m G Gort Ivy G G g g P / Ng Ngetal Reed (Broom) P P p p Ss Straif Blackthorn Z Z z z R Ruis Elder R R r r Aicme Ailme Letter Name Celtic Name English Font Horizontal Font Vertical A Ailm Silver Fir (Elm) A A a a O Onn Furze (Gorse/Whin) O O o o U Úr Heather (Mistletoe) U U u u E Edad Aspen (Poplar) E E e e I Idad Yew I I i i Forfeda Letter Name Celtic Name English Font Horizontal Font Vertical EA Koad Aspen 7 7 2 2 OI Oir Spindle 9 9 4 4 UI Phagos Beech* 0 0 5 5 IA Uileand Guelder Rose * 8 8 3 3 AE Mor Wych Elm 6 6 1 1 * UI glyph is reversed & upside down; IA glyph is reversed 2019-03-11 @ 11:12 /media/jeff/J12801P/Documents/Druidry/Ogham/Ogham Fonts.odt Page 2 of 2.
