What do these signs at the entrance of towns mean?

  1. Fuck knows. It’s called rovásírás, not many can read it so it’s essentially pointless. But when it’s placed like this it’s the name of the town/village

  2. The name of the town in the old cuneiform script that nobody remembers just edgy right winger fanboys and girls.

  3. Noone knows and at this point we are too afraid to ask.

    (It is the towns name written in the hungarian alphabet called “Rovásírás”.)

  4. loose translation: “If you sleep with our daughters, we are gonna put you in a bear, and burn you and your fead friends.”

  5. Miért kell egy ilyen poszt alatt is elkezdeni szidni a saját hazátokat? Hol volt még Orbán, Fidesz, nácik, stb. mikor rovásírást használtak..?

  6. [https://neweasterneurope.eu/2020/04/30/new-illiberalism-and-the-old-hungarian-alphabet/](https://neweasterneurope.eu/2020/04/30/new-illiberalism-and-the-old-hungarian-alphabet/)

    The article states ‘*Unlike in the case of Croatia’s Glagolitic, Hungary’s Rovás decidedly left the narrow confines of national symbolism and nowadays functions as a genuine second alphabet of the Hungarian language.*’ Still I never met anyone who could write it without an online translator.

  7. The name of the settlement in Rovás script. Ever since the 2000s, it’s an easy way for municipal governments to virtue signal about how patriotic they are.

  8. Read this quick as it is an unpopular opinion:

    village name written ancient Hungarian alphabet and it is not widely used. Politically it is pushed everywhere and has no sense at all. You can see them even abroad where Hungarian minority lives. It just gains conflicts as no one understands the point of the signs.
