Technically these are all still Latin leters, just that they’re written in a weird way that evolved from middle-aged Gothic handwriting as opposed to Latin directly which was the case with English cursive. This style of writing, along with the print-oriented 𝔣𝔯𝔞𝔨𝔱𝔲𝔯, was abandoned for the Latin equivalent by the Nazis for logistical reasons in 1941.

It’s so discomfortingly jagged
Like English cursive with sharp elbows.
What the hickety heck is going on between lowercase R and X?
Multiple letters for “s” sounds and the rest idk lol
Edit: looks like two for “t” sounds as well. Not sure how they’re supposed to sound though.
I’m not sure about the first and second "s"es, but the third is an “ß” (es and zet) that is still used for a sharp s sound following a long vowel… it’s still in use, for example in “Straße” (street). The second “t” is a “tz” which is also atill in use in words like Katze (cat).
I expected ß but then the extra letters kept going lol
