It appears that there are two different forms of Dwemeri writing.
Many good examples of the first type, which we call 'Dwemeris Glyphs' for easy reference, have been discovered in both Morrowind and Hammerfell. These are the runes that make up the famous texts 'The Egg of Time' and 'Divine Metaphysics' (see the link to BOOKS below).
The second type has so far been found only in Morrowind and can be seen upon pipes and fixtures in ruins across Vvardenfell. We call this collection of runes 'Dwemeris Script'.
If a relationship exists between these two types of runes, it is still not understood and research into linking them continues. The glyphs have so far withstood all but the most surface attempts at interpretation and the chart below continues to detail the index system created by Aquiantus.
However, we have been fortunate enough to translate the available Script runes, by examining them in isolation. Lord Divayth Fyr, Telvanni Magister and scholar, has kindly verified that their meanings are exactly as shown below. It is clear that Lord Fyr has access to a greater range of examples of this Script since he also allowed us to learn the rune that represents the Tamrielic "F", which we would not have been able to do otherwise.
