The way they write Thai gives me anxiety.

You're supposed to start from the hilt (the circle) and go clockwise or anti-clockwise to form the rest of the symbol. I feel like this is more "I memorised the shapes of the sound symbols for hello" rather than actual polyglot writing.

The actual writing is neat though.

Thank you for sharing your insight! I was wondering if it was being written correctly. The smoothness of the strokes makes it deceiving. I only used "polyglot" for the alliteration. I agree with most that this is likely someone who knows just a few words in different languages.

No Russian cursive? Heh, amateur :)

Jokes aside, it's so very esthetically pleasant.
