This is a sign on the road to Budapesht near the border between Ukraine and Hungary. There's the weird insistence in Ukraine to do a one-to-one transliteration of Cyrillic to Latin without much thought, so Ш just becomes SH... Google Maps link: https://maps.app.goo.gl/YyzH7xx7gWNJCcqA6
In polish we say and write Budapeszt.
In polish you do almost anythig for those crazy Scrabble scores.
Polish Scrabble has just 1 point for
Z
. Meanwhile, the Czech spelling Budapešť uses the 7-pointŤ
