neue Singular D

neue Singular is a contemporary Neo-grotesque sans-serif designed in three variants. The suffixes H, D, and V indicate the corresponding treatment of the stroke endings: H for horizontal, D for diagonal, and V for vertical. Despite of the stylistic range neue Singular covers it is still one coherent typographic system that shares the same amount of weights, identical character sets and vertical dimensions. Professional typographers are encouraged to use the individual variants as optical sizes — neue Singular H for headlines, neue Singular D for copy and neue Singular V for the small print.

Now let the candidate for the asylum try to memorize those variations, and see how soon he

will be elected. One might better go without friends in Germany than take all this trouble about

them. I have shown what a bother it is to decline a good (male) friend; well this is only a third of the

work, for there is a variety of new distortions of the adjective to be learned when the object is

feminine, and still another when the object is neuter. Now there are more adjectives in this

language than there are black cats in Switzerland, and they must all be as elaborately declined as

the examples above suggested. Difﬁcult? – troublesome? – these words cannot describe it. I heard

a Californian student in Heidelberg say, in one of his calmest moods, that he would

rather decline two drinks than one German adjective. The inventor of the language seems to

have taken pleasure in complicating it in every way he could think of. For instance, if one

is casually referring to a house, Haus, or a horse, Pferd, or a dog, Hund, he spells these words as I

have indicated; but if he is referring to them in the Dative case, he sticks on a foolish and

unnecessary e and spells them Hause, Pferde, Hunde. So, as an added e often signiﬁes the plural,

as the s does with us, the new student is likely to go on for a month making twins out of a

Dative dog before he discovers his mistake; and on the other hand, many a new student who

could ill afford loss, has bought and paid for two dogs and only got one of them because he

ignorantly bought that dog in the Dative singular when he really supposed he was talking plural –

which left the law on the seller’s side, of course, by the strict rules of grammar, and therefore a suit

for recovery could not lie. In German, all the Nouns begin with a capital letter. Now that is a

good idea; and a good idea, in this language, is necessarily conspicuous from its lonesome-
