definition: Writing style/font that emerged in Western Europe during the Middle Ages, noted for its intricate, angular forms and dramatic flourishes. In Chinese graffiti, there is a contemporary trend known as Zhongwen gete shufa 中文哥特书法 (Modern Gothichinese Calligraffiti), which merges Gothic fonts with Chinese characters and calligraphy. This style combines the intricate, ornamental characteristics of Gothic script with the fluidity and cultural richness of Chinese writing.
