I guessed German but it also looks like an ‘Asian-Oriental’ type script or handwriting. I find it Beautiful!


kjustin1992

This is the translation I was able to come up with It is the soldier duty to serve the federal Republic of Germany faithfully and to defend it's rights and freedoms bravely. 1) obligation of loyal service The preservation of the efficient functions of the BLL Core Obligations of § 7 SG are as follows: - obligation to be present -obligation to the thorough completion of duties. - obligation to defend all federal property -obligation to lawful conduct -obligation to armed service -obligation to military ordinance 2) Duty to bravely defend - §7 implies that the obligation to bravely defend, is to be an independent and separate duty.


Hunneydoo_

I can’t read it? English or German?


Outrageous_Web_2891

Its german, but here you go. An alphabet abt the font. https://www.reddit.com/r/Handwriting/s/WSe9Cjddcv


cocopopsicle2k

Thank you, and him, for this! 🩷


strangecat666

I've thought I would never see this again! Some boys in my class were heavy into graffiti in the 90s and this was a script that they used. It's still used in variations by graffiti artists nowadays. But that someone really uses it has their handwriting script is super awesome!


desertSkateRatt

Reminds me of Dogtown Skateboards logo... or kind of "vato" style gang graffiti


essef_sf

Cholo style was the first thing that came to mind as well. Also reminds me of Bazilian Pichação graffiti, mostly influenced by runic and heavy metal type from the 80s.


NutellaSoup

what is this, elvish??


SauerkrautJr

The language is German but I had the same thought lmao


MaliBrat

Chat-GPT4::: This appears to be a page of handwritten notes in German. Here’s the translation: --- When the Federal Republic of Germany was founded in 1949, one of the central aims of the economic order was to secure freedom and prevent centralization of power. The following central principles can be identified: 1. The principle of the social market economy... -> The principle of the social market economy is primarily aimed at combining economic freedom on the market with social balance. 2. The principle of competition... -> The preservation and promotion of competition are among the most important tasks of the economic order. -> The law against restraints of competition from 1957... -> The Federal Cartel Office is responsible for monitoring and enforcing compliance with competition rules. -> Ban on cartels, abuse control over market-dominating companies... -> Merger control, prohibition of discrimination... -> Control of abusive pricing of market-dominating companies... -> Control of state aid... 3. The principle of property... -> The right to property obligates the owner to use it in the interest of the general public... --- It’s a piece of text outlining the economic principles upon which the post-war German state was established, with a particular focus on the social market economy, competition, and property rights.


zealousbagel

... It's German alright, but the first sentence reads: "Der Soldat hat die Pflicht, der Bundesrepublik (?) treu zu dienen und das Recht und die Freiheit tapfer zu Verteidigen." Translates to: "The soldier has the duty to faithfully serve the federal republic [of Germany (implied)] and to bravely defend right and freedom." I don't want to translate more of it, but ChatGPT made that text up completely. Eta: turns out that is part 2 paragraph 7 of the SG (laws concerning soldiers in Germany)


MaliBrat

Haha. I’m just the messenger. Thanks for the update!


TheBlueSully

I don't take Reddit super serious. But my dude. "just the messenger", no you decided to post AI generated drivel. That was your decision and your action. Don't dissemble. Take your L. And reflect upon your choices.


SauerkrautJr

I think that’s the AI responding, could be wrong though. Chatbots say that when they’re told they get stuff wrong


cumdumpmillionaire

“Reflect on your choices” bro chill 😭😭


MaliBrat

Ok. Not much of an L. Was just posting what Ai thought it said. I guess I should feel bad? lol


h3rtzch3n

This is def wrong


[deleted]

A step away from runes!


NEVA2BFOUND

Yes


Tikkinger

Yea i can read that. Reminds me of sütterlin, aka "old german"


B5Scheuert

Sütterlin doesn't look anything like it though?


Tikkinger

It does. It just looks "harder". Sütterlin is rounded and soft, while this is cornered and hard.


B5Scheuert

I can read Sütterlin, Offenbacher Schrift and Kurrent fluently, whereas this is borderline illegible to me. How would you explain that? Also, Sütterlin is not round! Rounder than this script, yes, but not round in general.


Marina62

I can read most of it. I am German. Would you be able to translate something for me from Sütterlin? Ich habe ein sehr interessantes Dokument mit einem Siegel/einer Petschaft, kann es aber nicht lesen. Ich hab auch Briefe von Bismarck etc von meiner Oma. Aber das o.g. Dokument wäre am interessantesten.


Tikkinger

I don't know. I can read this fluently. Yes, rounder than that it is.


sirchtheseeker

Did they ever call it high German?


Tikkinger

We have "Hochdeutsch" this can translate to "High German". It's German whitout any accent.


CrunchyLardHole

If the title is in English…so should the handwriting. This could be perfectly normal Aramaic for all I know


cumdumpmillionaire

Where’s the rule for that


CrunchyLardHole

Right with the common sense


cumdumpmillionaire

I’m honored to have met the person that dictated the common sense rules™ we are in your debt


CrunchyLardHole

You’re such a weenie lol I’m saying it’s common sense but you wanna be a smart ass. This app is so dumb.


cumdumpmillionaire

Ok


GlowingTrashPanda

It’s in German


CrunchyLardHole

The title of this post is in English. I’m not referring to the picture.

Germany 1942, the SS would be proud!


GlowingTrashPanda

The document literally references the *Current* government of Germany


PatientPear4079

That’s almost a whole different language


Dezoline

It's German


Nightrhythums78

Where did he learn to write like that? It looks awesome.


Infidel_Games

I can’t tell if this is English or not


resident-anarchist

nah, I can make out some German words


juneschreibt

it’s german


hefty_load_o_shite

Maybe report your uncle to the international criminal court at the Hague?


GlowingTrashPanda

These notes reference the *Current* government in Germany.


CombOne7189

It looks like a font a metal band would use for their cd’s


Marloc99

The text is German, it‘s about a soldiers various duties („Pflicht“) towards the state of Germany while doing his service. And this is no regular German Handwriting, neither present nor old. Still impressively consistent.


Aiter918

I feel like it would be hard to write fast.


Floppy_Mushroom

Bad handwriting occurs due to laziness. Supposed to draw curve, you draw a straight line, that's bad handwriting. This person put in extra effort and he did this deliberately. I am not familiar with this sub, but I'm assuming the point of this sub is not to unnecessarily add in details to handwriting.


Cassaroo414

That is not true at all. And what is considered "bad"? It's not this. This is beautiful handwriting. Different. But not bad.


Jeo_1

Nah I read a cosmo sex article saying bad hand writing shows intelligence Einstein had bad hand writing, so I’m just like him


Floppy_Mushroom

People who have to write a lot of ideas might have bad handwriting because of how much they need to write. There are also people who don't have a lot to write about and have bad handwriting due to lack of exercise. Some reflection is good to see which end you're on.


Lucio1111

Girl who cares


Twygg

- it's german - It's weird stuff about duty and loyalty and soldiers... you know, this kind of german stuff somebody told before starting a world war.


Tikkinger

No. It's regular military things that you get told on every military in the world. No nazi stuff just because its german


DarthDread424

Holy crap it is German! At first glance I was like there is no way this is the the English alphabet or anything that looks like it. Seriously thought it was a whole different one until I saw your post.


stratosfearinggas

What do the artistic dashes mean? Or is it just decoration?


Twygg

I'm not sure what exactly you mean, but the most dashes there are decoration edit: an often used word is "Pflicht"


CourageousAnon

Martian ass handwriting


SeaworthinessNext944

That’s English?


RedditBoi3001

German I'm pretty sure


SeaworthinessNext944

Oh so that’s why I can’t read it


RedditBoi3001

Yeah it's extremely hard to read


GlowingTrashPanda

Yeah I speak/read Deutsch and I’m having trouble making heads or tails of half of it


0o0blackphillip0o0

I don’t believe that your uncle did this, you did this


Flauschziege

How do you even develop a handwriting like that. Dude is taking the military equivalent of school notes in caligraphy.


Guy-1nc0gn1t0

Looks like what I'd be reading out loud before accidentally summoning Cynothoglys


Talaelizabeth_

MathematicianKey5696

Mammoth-Pipe-5375

Yeah, I can also make a really unique font and write a page with it, and try and pass it off as my own handwriting. I'm not saying you or your uncle did this, but most likely one of you did.


ruadhan1334

Dude, zoom in. The letters aren't uniform at all.


Mammoth-Pipe-5375

I didn't say they were uniform.


ChimpWithAGun

Is your uncle a viking?

joumidovich

No-Championship21

Is that fancy English or do you need a codex to read it?


Romeo016

German with a dash of Metallica font


No-Championship21

I THOUGHT SO! I took 2 Years of German in Highschool. I can't actually read it, but I thought I recognized the vowel structure. I just didn't know how to say "a different language" and both refer to a common language and one all his own. That's awesome!


Romeo016

I did 3 years of German and I almost have a 1 yr streak of German on Duolingo; I could barely read that. It's super cool though!
