In questions asking advice, this layout is self-explanatory. The main thing is to determine the difference between runes #2 and #3. #1 is the topic and #4 is the result.

In questions regarding confusion, such as: "What was the meaning of Rune (X) in the last layout?" the main thing is also to determine the difference between runes #2 and #3. In this case, #2 will show what the rune was not referring to, and Rune #3 will show what was really meant. Rune #1 is the topic and #4 represents the purpose it serves.
