      Yeah it makes it look like russian cyrilic cursive. That one actually is supposed to have more letters look that way.

      Or the Serbian one.

      That is the word for paté. The letters with lines over them sound completely different as well.

        Fortunately, my russian teacher wrote “normally”, while I had to deal with basically this mess in German, where you only could separate the u from the n and the w from the m by the lines below the u and w.

          That’s a feature of a very old German hand writing style that hasn’t been used much since WWII

            Yet, Sütterlin looks different, as it often has vertical and diagonal straight lines where Latin script has round shapes. But likewise, it’s difficult to read.
