The thing that I find the most funny about this post, is the fact that you call this Italian

how am i supposed to know how italians speak. i've never seen one
Blud could've chosen Runic, Egyptian, Ancient Romanian used by Vlad the Impaler, Mesapotamian or even Harappan Indic. But Italian is it.
Blud I'm gonna be fr no cap rn but wtf does blud mean I've been meaning to ask for months and I still don't get it
It's a Jamaican slang for 'friend' or 'brother'.
Thanks blud.
Needs more fam
Which language uses these signs? It truly looks like some kind of alien language
Glagolitic script. Oldest known Slavic alphabet according to Wikipedia.
They should revive this script. I like it more than Cyrillic.
APL?
Unown
I think it's the Ge'ez script used in Ethiopian.
That’s what I thought I saw too
Well, it certainly doesn't overflow on 32 bit systems
That's not italian that's obviously Unown
It looks so badass, I could have used that script now because im Ukrainian but instead I have cyrillic script which is so boring
rebel against Russian imperialism, return to glagolitic
It's not russian, If my bulgarian friend is right then it was created by a bulgarian guy
There is no single person responsible for Cyrillic script. It is mostly believed to be created by mixing and changing Greek and Glagolic scripts by the scholars of Preslav Literary School, which was indeed in Bulgaria. After a while, Peter the Great changed it a lot. And then Stalin stomped out almost all the deviations in the usage of the script.
The last part is mostly why it is considered Russian. A lot of languages suffered because of Moscow just forcing them to use the version of Cyrillic that Russians were using.
I felt that when he said *83h400+93）*38hpfhi0
Title mentions speaking italian
Not a single hand gesture anywhere
I've been duped
Kind of looks like the writing system of Georgian language but I'm not sure
Nah, Georgian is arcs and circles everywhere, like this: ეს ქართული დამწერლობაა.
No, this is Glagolitic script, an alternative to Cyrillic. Mostly used in old Slavic scriptures, was later replaced by Cyrillic and Latin.
Most Slavs themselves don't know how to read this
It's a dead script that was not that common in the first place, in Kievan Rus' it was even used as a form of encryption in XI—XVI centuries for how little spread it was. It is also very different from modern Cyrillic. So, saying "most Slavs don't know how to read it" is a bit of an understatement. Noone knows how to read it, apart from some linguists and overzealous Witcher fans.
It was widespread in Croatia until the late middle ages, about XIV-XV century.

I could fluently read and write it in high school. Was bored.
Yea, Croatia is the only place it got widely used. Is it some kind of historical elective course in Croatian schools? Been a coupe of times in Croatia, never seen Glagolitic in the wild, though. Maybe wasn't looking good enough.
Is it some kind of historical elective course
No, there was a poster showing correspondence with Latin on the wall, somewhere. The symbols are almost 1-1 with modern orthography, so it takes only about a week of practice. And I was really bored.
never seen Glagolic in the wild
It's about as distant from modern use as runes are for germanic speakers, but maybe with different connotations. Decorative nonsense.
But I did submit essays written with that when I wanted to fail with style. :)
I also met a guy in college who used it to keep notes. That guy was also bored.
I guess I'll just add you guys to the "overzealous Witcher fans" and consider my point valid.
😒
Well, then I was wrong
You may not understand, but we do.
Questo segreto rimarrà custodito gelosamente dalla stirpe italica. ◉‿◉
No brother non possiamo tenere questo segreto fino alla fine
Non c'è scelta, se l'ultimo italiano dovesse lasciarci, allora anche questa informazione dovrà lasciare l'umanità
Wow, an alien ion drive formula! Try to get warp drive out of it too!
We are so cooked
