Get the tekitoumug. (noun)
A visual-word phenomenon. when the word “tekit” is rotated 90 degrees, many people notice it ressembles the shape of a historical german leader. The effect is most noticeable in bold or blocky fonts, where the letters align in a way that creates a recognizable outline. It can be seen in handwriting, although results depend on handwriting style.
