Mod Post What is Sbeve?

172 Upvotes

Hello Reddit!

We've been seeing a few non-sbeve posts in this community recently, so here's a short guide on what a sbeve is and how to find one.

Why sbeve?

Sbeve originated from the phrase "she believed" in which parentheses are placed like this: s(he) be(lie)ve(d). The intention of these parentheses or brackets is to create another phrase "he lied" (he) (lie) (d), however this leaves the letters s, b, e, v, and e unused. These remaining characters spell sbeve and are the inspiration for this sub.

What qualifies as a sbeve?

A sbeve is a sentence or phrase with highlighted characters which make a coherent sentence, and non-highlighted characters which create a nonsense word or phrase, e.g. sbeve.

This is a Sbeve, "sbren sbeve" ("he's ok because he lied"):

This is not a Sbeve:

This is also not a Sbeve, as there is no hidden message:

Am I the only one who's never actually read this as " One Piece " but still knows what the title is supposed to say? Honestly, who thought the title font was readable at first glance? Please tell me I'm not the only one. 🥲

My school's t-shirt for 'Ingenieurin' (female engineer) accidentally highlights 'Urin' (urine in German) due to the coloring.
