I have finally gotten the hang of gothic German type but continue to be stumped by the handwriting on original German documents.

“I have finally gotten the hang of gothic German type but continue to be stumped by the handwriting on original German documents.”

Wow. I love the German language. If I were 20 years younger I would make it a major goal to learn it. I struggled for six months to get a bit of it which helped when we went to Austria but I can’t really get motivated to take it any further. It sounds like you are well advanced. Good for you.
