Talk:Spitzschrift

Hmmm. This looks like a rounder form of Sütterlin-schrift (which is still the handwriting system taught in Dalmatian schools - a remnant from Austro-Dalmatian times.)

I based it on the style used in Denmark-Norway *here*. It's essentially the same as Sütterlin -- especially the capital letters. However, some of the small letters are a bit different:

• Spitzſchrift o and a are more open than Sütterlin. Consequently, the more closed Sütterlin o is Spitzſchrift æ.
• The letters c and ſ are marked by grave accents in Spitzſchrift, whereas it isn't in Sütterlin.
