Finnish Runes, or Suomalaiset riimut, is a way to write Finnish using the Runic alphabet devised by Murray Callahan. Most of the consonant runes are based on the Younger Futhark and Gothenburg runes used in Sweden, while many of the vowels runes were chosen according to their corresponding front-back vowels to reflect the language's vowel harmony.

Kaikki ihmiset syntyvät vapaina ja tasavertaisina arvoltaan ja oikeuksiltaan. Heille on annettu järki ja omatunto, ja heidän on toimittava toisiaan kohtaan veljeyden hengessä.
All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood.
