And now for the Pseudo-Germanisms in some Slavic languages. An under-studied subject, compared to Pseudo Anglicisms! This is when a word has been borrowed into a language, where the meaning then has changed.
Examples: Čus borrowed from Tschüss, means "hi!" in CS, but "bye!" in DE, or ancug borrowed from DE Anzug, means sportswear in SR but "suit" in DE.

Spotted this extremely unusual stylized script on some graffiti in Split, Croatia. Pretty sure the second word is in Glagolitic letters, but I can’t decipher the letters.

What does it say? And what does it mean? Any help would be much appreciated.

From the same article:

> ❝A similar taboo also operated in the #Slavic languages, but a different circumlocution was used. The word for #bear in #Russian is "medved", and the same in #Czech. In #Polish, bear is a similar word "niedzwiedz", and in Old Church #Slavonic, bear is "medvedi". All of these words mean something like "honey-eater" and are derived from the common Slavic words "medu" = "honey" (PIE *medhu-, from which we also get the English word "mead") plus "ed-" = "eat".❞
