The following Latin alphabet is used to write Is Burunking today.
Is Burunking was originally written in a syllabary called ''hookozui'', mainly carved into wood or, occasionally, stone.
 
When the language was initially discovered by Europeans the Greek alphabet was used in its transcription, but later studies preferred to use the Latin script, which is still used today.
