About

A classic Germanic blackletter hand. Used when writing Germanic languages with Romance ones---in typesetting, you'd use Fraktur for German or English and Antiqua for French or Italian; in handwriting, you'd use Kurrentschrift and Ausgangsschrift respectively. This is the older, pre-Suetterlin variant; as such, it is written on an angle and with a pen, as opposed to vertically with a biro. The "round" or terminal lowercase "s" is on the # key. Long "s" is used otherwise and is on the lowercase "s" key.
