Do you mean printed, or handwritten? Because Sütterlin looks like gibberish to most Europeans. And it is just the standard Latin alphabet, give or take. It looks like some kind of letters, but they could be from the Voynich manuscript and they would still be as understandable.
In print, it’s partly because several letters are deceptive and don’t sound anything like the closest-looking ones in the Latin alphabet. Some others are just plain weird-looking if you are not familiar with the alphabet already.
