<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 436166, member: 39&quot;]Yeah, those different usernames - long story. And yes, of course asking for more info is fine. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> I edited my previous reply and added the link to the Sütterlin script. In some ways that (hand)writing style is similar to the printed &quot;Fraktur&quot; that you may have come across on Nazi Germany&#039;s coinage for example.</p><p><br /></p><p>Both are &quot;old and odd&quot; these days, but Fraktur is a little easier to read methinks. What they have in common is the differentiation between the &quot;long s&quot; and the &quot;round s&quot;. But some Sütterlin characters are really weird indeed, like the lowercase E, or the uppercase B and S.</p><p><br /></p><p>Well, Fraktur is still used (in print) from time to time when you want to convey &quot;tradition&quot; - be it newspaper titles or pub signs. But Sütterlin ... don&#039;t think that is still used by anybody.</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
