This looks exactly like the cursive I learned in 3rd grade in the '70's. Today I combine cursive with print sort of like my own style. So glad I ran across this channel for a refresher. So beautifully written. I'm going to practice this. Looks awesome
I always found cursive writing beautiful with pencil. Beside, I taught myself cursive writing using cursive writing technique books. Thanks for this showcase!
I appreciate that this was done in real time and not the speeded up version of some calligraphers that make it look like writing calligraphy is so simple. It's an art form that needs its time.
Not really. Just gotta be practicing with it. I learned Cursive/Calligraphy writing in 3rd grade & been writing like that ever since. It's not much more of an art than learning how to ride a bicycle.

It looks like an older version of the alphabet. When I learned cursive in the 1950’s, it was pretty, but not nearly with these many flourishes. For this style of cursive you need a lot of time to do it. Just think about writing a letter! And how beautiful a gift that would be! 💖
If you learned cursive in the 50s and you were in the USA then more than likely what they taught you was "Palmer script," or the even more simple "Library Script" which was a style of cursive that was made specially for librarians in the 20s and then became popular in academia across the nation. Both Palmer and Library styles rejected flourishing. The cursive styles were meant to be legible, simple, quick, and easy to teach.
I learned French in my school, which was special French school and we learned foreign language from the first class , so our teacher teach us to write just like that, I am writing now that way in English.I think it’s pretty. It was 56 years ago and we used to use ink,so challenging, but the results were good 😊
We did same in our UK junior school learnt everyweek to do this and like you with fountain pen.. my writing automatically has this in it now in my 50s too, must've been a thing then... xx
It makes me happy but sad to hear these stories. Went to elementary and middle school in the early 2000's and a lot of stuff like this was being removed by all the schools.

This is beautiful. While most of the lower case letters are the way we were taught (early 70's) most of the upper case are way more ornate than what I remember. I suspect that we were taught a simplify version of this.

Just beautiful. Not quite the cursive I learned. Not the Palmer method my mother learned. But it's still very beautiful. In art class, for Old English calligraphy I had to write out whole sheets of each letter capital, and lower case. By the end of the exercise I could write in whole sentences and it looked nice. Then she shows us a copy of the Declaration of Independence, the original was handed off to a calligrapher after Thomas Jefferson wrote it. We may never get to write something so very important in our lifetime, but this person probably thought that too the day before. I hope the art of beautiful writing never goes out of style. It broke my heart when I found out they stopped teaching kids in school how to write in cursive. Friends of mine, their oldest child learned it, the middle child (just a few years younger) didn't get to learn it. The middle child asked me what's the big deal if he can't write cursive? I answered: How are you going to legally sign documents if you cannot sign your name in cursive to distinguish your signature from someone else, if you can only print your name? How are you going to write out a check? Or sign a credit card? It's important to be able to read cursive too. Old letters, old documents, were written in cursive. The Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, were all written in calligraphy cursive. You won't even be able to read copies of the originals if you can't read and write cursive. You need to learn, even if it's your mom teaching you. He had not thought about a legal signature, or any of the rest.

@@BROUBoomer Oh, you're sweet! But I think my comment was a bit unclear. I'm not a teacher, I meant that I learned cursive when I was in third grade, and my class was one of the last years that got taught it. Sorry about that. :)
Very, very similar to the Palmer method I was taught as a child in the mid 80s. The capital G, J, K, and others are slightly different though. Still beautifully executed here.
@Luke O'Brien...I learned Palmer method too. I thought that the capital I, N, M, and S looked a little different, too, along with the ones that you mentioned. He also seemed to have an extra wavy bit on the upper left side of some of the capital letters.
I learned Zaner Bloser in 2015~2016, but some of the letters I write differ, especially capitals. The difference is I connect all my capital letters unlike other Cursive methods
The only one I didn't like was lowercase e. The purpose of cursive is to link letters without lifting the pencil off the page. The e feels clunky, as it's not a true member of the c family and as such shouldn't lead with that up- over- back approach, but should start forward, then cross itself on the loop back, ready to join the next letter.
@@santosmadrigal3702 Every child in school. They often struggle with cursive, but in the UK, the wonderful government inspectors expect to see cursive in books, so we have to have these teaching methods in place to help those who find it difficult.
I am from France and this is literally how we are taught to write since primary school, it’s very interesting to see the differences between school systems. Btw I was born in 2004 so it is was not that long ago :)
This is similar to the cursive writing I was taught many years ago. This calligraphy is much more relaxed and elongated. I love calligraphy and it isn't easy. Bravo to you video creator.
I haven't seen cursive writing this beautiful since my second grade text books back in the 80s. I know my worrying never got this polished. I swear my signature worsens each time I write. That said, I also feel my kana and Kanji is better than my Roman letters. I think, as an artist, I see the beauty of the writing so I care about it more. As well, everyone compliments my writing on cakes (I am a cake decorator and I am much more careful there than my average writing). All this to say: beautiful.
So true! I remember learning that classic slant and every letter had a pre stroke to connect it to the previous letter. Wow. It definitely changed to more simple stuff pretty quick but so cool to see this. Also, what kind of pencil is that??!!
It reminds me when I was Elementary years in a Catholic school. I used to have a class like this, i practiced so much. I used to love it. The only letter we did different was capital "G". It did help, but my informal-current handwriting is terrible. Loved your video...!
I'm so surprised how many people think this is new. I learned this when I was in second grade. They taught cursive when I was growing up. It's a shame children don't know this. But then yet they don't teach like they used to.
I have been a teacher in several different schools over the years, and what you said here is factually inaccurate. You should have said, "I'm not sure, but my guess is they don't teach cursive in schools, any teachers out there who can shed some light?" Or something like that...
You sound out of touch with what's happening in your congress halls. Funding for education has severely declined in the past 30 years, while military spending has grossly increased. Ask yourself where the problem is. While I do agree it's a shame that cursive is no longer taught I do feel this is something parents can teach us, if they are able to but also that society (even those without kids) should be investing more in the basics of children's educations. Learning to use one's hands to write a poem in cursive is beautiful.
Beautiful ! So elegant and so satisfying to watch! Here in France cursive is taught in primary school and even preschool. Of course it's not as sophisticated as the one on the video : )
Very little of this looks like the cursive I was taught in school. Also, we were always taught that the point of cursive writing was that the pen never left the paper--quite a few of these letters required 2, 3, or more separate strokes.
Desde pequena mi letra es muy bonita.... Pero siempre quiero mejorar y mejorar, hoy en dia ya casi nadie escribe, me encanta ver este tipo de videos, me dan ganas de escribir algo.... Since I was young I have beautiful handwriting, but I always want to get better and better.... I love to watch this kind of videos. Thank you!!!
I'm 61, in elementary, we had to learn cursive writing but we weren't pushed to write beautifully just legible. The schools stop teaching cursive a long time ago and I never knew some generations can't write in cursive...
So lovely. I hope the young people today will watch this video. At the bank while buying my home a young woman working there said my signatures didn’t match. I couldn’t imagine what she was talking about until I realized she didn’t understand what a cursive capital letter T looks like! It made me very sad.
That is really sad, as I remember this used to be taught at school. Something is off with the education system, just the other day I was explaining to the delivery girl where I live, and I said Yuri Gagarin street and she repeatedly asked who, and than I said the cosmonaut, and she said nothing. She really didn't know. I was appalled.
It is not not just young people. Adults tend to have different handwriting and way of writing their names differently then as they grow as youth. At 46, my writing is different than at 26. But the next person my age would write different than me, then also different than both of us, the 3rd person our age writes their own way.
I loved teaching and using cursive. My arthritis prevents me from doing so well at it, but the concentration used whilst you write slowly can be very relaxing. What kind of pencil is this? Quite soft, no?
This is a Calligraphy version but very similar to the Penmanship we’ve learned in school, just not as ornately done. Really very similar though! Beautiful job! And very calming to watch!
Calligraphy is just beautiful. I love watching and with a little practice l'm sure that I can achieve it. Thinking back to early grade school 🏫, it was just pretty seeing the cursive alphabet. Thanks
This was nicely done. A few capital letters and lower case ones are different than I was taught in elementary. I guess it might have changed or there were different versions around the US. Regardless, I love seeing this, it was a beautiful trip down memory lane.
I used to learned it when I was in the 6th grade in 1983. It was hard at first, by keep trying to write slowly. I love the beauty shape of lines.. Thanks so much to you to remind me. You have the best hand writing 😊
This looks like a cross between cursive handwriting and calligraphy. There's quite a bit more flourish in many of these, particularly the upper case letters. Still pretty.
That's some fancy cursive right there! I like it (What you're writing isn't just "English alphabet". You're writing cursive in the style of calligraphy. Cursive isn't used/taught a lot in America anymore.. Typical English now is what is called "print" or "printing". It's a shame cursive isn't common anymore.
This is more of a calligraphy type of font. I learned to write in cursive ( it is still taught in eastern Europe) and we don't actually write with all of those wobbly lines and little dots because it takes time. After a few years everyone has a mixed writing style , cursive and print too
I'm actually trying to learn calligraphy myself now and back when I was in school (I'm 32 now) we learned how to write in cursive in like 3rd grade or so. But now it's not even taught. I've got a friend of mine her daughter, my goddaughter got in trouble for writing in cursive on one of her papers and she's in the 4th grade I think it is and I was blown away to find out that she received a lower grade bc of writing it in cursive smh I was like wow wtf
@@princess2141990 that's interesting. Where I'm from it's older people who don't write cursive. My parents write in block capitals and me and my brother are always commenting on the fact they don't join their writing.
@@princess2141990 that is ridiculous!! I homeschool my son so he will be learning cursive this year. Do they expect signatures to be print now instead of cursive??
@@A-G5518 damn if I know. I'm in SC, the schools around here aren't really up to speed unlike other states I noticed back when I was going to school here. I mainly attended schools in NC and at the end of my 9th grade year my dad had passed away and I ended up having to move to SC and unfortunately my school I was going to messed up and put a zero down on my finals instead of a exempt bc of the death in immediate family and so had to redo 9th grade so when I started school down here they were teaching stuff in SC schools that I had learned like 2 or 3 years prior with some stuff in NC schools.
This is beautiful and I was lucky to have learned. I do make some letters a little bit different but still it is one of the most beautiful handwriting for sure.
В 60-х годах нас учила так писать наш классный руководитель, учившая нас английскому языку. А мои дети, закончившие гимназию(!), пишут печатными буквами☹️
Thanks for the effort. There is no such a thing as "English alphabet", there has never been and there will never be. This is Latin alphabet. Rome gave alphabet to the barbarians. Period.
That's how I've always done my little Zs, it looks so cool when I put it in my tag. I was taught this kind of writing and joined up at school in the uk.
When I was 8, everytime in English class we had cursive writing as a component in the English subject... On each sentence, and every single time, I get penalized for 'running off the grid' 😁, though my handwriting was ever neat (even up to this day😉). I was told off to make corrections by re-writing the same sentence for about 10-20 times, and each time I re-write, my writing still fell off the grid🤣🤣🤣 In the end my teacher said : well, son, you just created your own handwriting😎 At first, seeing this reminds me of having my fingers 'in shackles inside a penitentiary and being forced to write down the history of my life in cursive writing' 🤣. Really, kudos to this guy/girl with such beautiful handwriting😅😁 now I enjoy signing my documents and no longer see this as a form of detention😉 😊
3 types of people in the comments 1. 'This is so beautiful and amazing!' 2. 'You got it wrong' 3. 'I remember learning this at school' I would probably fall into the first category if I wasn't writing this comment, lovely work!
Hermoso!!!! a poner en práctica todas tus enseñanzas, Gracias, esa tranquilidad con la que dibujas cada letra, me da la seguridad que será fácil dibujarlas.
I too learned how to write in cursive in the third grade, back in 1965. I remember it well. The very fancy form of cursive you are showing here was popular in the 19th century. Most people at that time were eager to practice handwriting, and perfect their own style. This sort of thing helps immensely to organize the brain, and it's absence is just one contributing factor to the overall stupidity of the present era.
Não sou a pessoa que fez esse vídeo, mas vou te responder, pois a pessoa que gravou esse vídeo não é brasileira, então acredito que não irá entender a sua pergunta. Eu sei reconhecer traços de lápis grafite, esse que ele está usando é o 02 da linha escolar mesmo, não é nenhum especial. Se você quiser ir treinando com um grafite um pouco mais forte e macio, recomendo o grafite para desenhista, o número 3B ou 4B dá certo. Da linha B, quanto maior o número é, mais escuro é o pigmento, mas também as pontas se gastam mais fáceis, por serem macias demais. Por isso recomendo o 3B ou 4B, pois é um pouco mais forte que o tradicional e macio, mas não é tanto como o 8B, por exemplo. Depois que você pegar a prática, pode escolher as numerações maiores
The lower case letter E shouldn't have been done in two parts. You would start with the tail on the left , arch at the top, come back down the tail to make the loop and then end with the tail on the right. The pen/ pencil should never leave the paper..

@Luke O'Brien...I learned Palmer method too. I thought that the capital I, N, M, and S looked a little different, too, along with the ones that you mentioned. He also seemed to have an extra wavy bit on the upper left side of some of the capital letters.
I learned Zaner Bloser in 2015~2016, but some of the letters I write differ, especially capitals. The difference is I connect all my capital letters unlike other Cursive methods
Appreciated
I'm not even here to improve my writing. This is like ASMR to me. Really relaxing. You're awesome.
Sorry alittle lots on the abrivation. ASMR. Just what does that mean again?
I'm curious what it means too. lol I know quite a few abbreviations but this one has me stumped 🧐
@@lisawalker5607 lol stands for laugh out loud.
@@carllaflynn3416 umm...yeah, i know I was referring to the ASMR
@@lisawalker5607 haha on me. Was not to awake when I responded
The only one I didn't like was lowercase e. The purpose of cursive is to link letters without lifting the pencil off the page. The e feels clunky, as it's not a true member of the c family and as such shouldn't lead with that up- over- back approach, but should start forward, then cross itself on the loop back, ready to join the next letter.
Everyone texts now a days . Who writes , except us old people ?
.gt
The lower case 'k' wasn't right either
@@janet180971 no, it wasn't. Lol, not even close...
@@santosmadrigal3702 Every child in school. They often struggle with cursive, but in the UK, the wonderful government inspectors expect to see cursive in books, so we have to have these teaching methods in place to help those who find it difficult.
I like how he does it with just a pencil. Proves that good penmanship does not require a fancy, expensive pen!
I honestly forgot how beautiful my language could look. I remember writing out cursive when I was little. 👍
I am from France and this is literally how we are taught to write since primary school, it’s very interesting to see the differences between school systems. Btw I was born in 2004 so it is was not that long ago :)
Good 😊
This is similar to the cursive writing I was taught many years ago. This calligraphy is much more relaxed and elongated. I love calligraphy and it isn't easy. Bravo to you video creator.
Not calligraphy. That a whole different type of tool
@@Debbiediamond0310 No? Hmm, maybe it's just the teacher's difference in drawing then?
@@sandymckoy1356 calligraphy pencils/ markers are flat. So you get a more precise curve
@@Debbiediamond0310 Oh, I did not know that. But now that you've mentioned it, I see you're correct. Thanks, something to remember.
I haven't seen cursive writing this beautiful since my second grade text books back in the 80s. I know my worrying never got this polished. I swear my signature worsens each time I write. That said, I also feel my kana and Kanji is better than my Roman letters. I think, as an artist, I see the beauty of the writing so I care about it more. As well, everyone compliments my writing on cakes (I am a cake decorator and I am much more careful there than my average writing). All this to say: beautiful.
Are you serious? This is the worst cursive writing I’ve seen in my life lol
So true! I remember learning that classic slant and every letter had a pre stroke to connect it to the previous letter. Wow. It definitely changed to more simple stuff pretty quick but so cool to see this. Also, what kind of pencil is that??!!
It's not Roman letters? I think you mean Latin letters as in the Latin Alphabet. Sorry just never heard someone say Roman letters
It's always a relaxing joy to see such care in your beautiful penmanship, in whatever language you choose to write!
It reminds me when I was Elementary years in a Catholic school.
I used to have a class like this, i practiced so much. I used to love it.
The only letter we did different was capital "G".
It did help, but my informal-current handwriting is terrible.
Loved your video...!
I went through the same thing, but both upper and lowercase K were different for us
Catholics are the CURSive leaders, historically.
Pretty close to the cursive I learned in elementary school in the early ‘80’s here in the US. But I’ve never seen the capital S or Z done this way.
I was thinking the same thing. The K seems off as well
Your writing utensil tip should never leave the paper in lower case letters either.
The lower case p was interesting
I appreciate the silence. No busy music. That is a gift.
Im happy to find a video w/o loud, repetetive music playing in the background. Very nice writing.😊
MARAVILHOSA !!!! ❤🙏👏
They do not teach cursive writing in English schools any longer, which is such a shame.
Lovely penmanship.
Thats right, I had to teach my 12 year grandson how to write cursive
So true 👍🥲
Correct. My son is going to 7th grade. Didn’t even teach him how to sign his name. I can’t help much as I am left handed
Depends on which english, when i was in primary school i learnt it and i am still a bit young
They used to a couple of years ago when you were in younger grades they had a book with cursive but they don't anymore.
I was taught cursive just like this. It’s crazy kids are not taught this anymore.
I'm so surprised how many people think this is new. I learned this when I was in second grade. They taught cursive when I was growing up. It's a shame children don't know this. But then yet they don't teach like they used to.
I have been a teacher in several different schools over the years, and what you said here is factually inaccurate. You should have said, "I'm not sure, but my guess is they don't teach cursive in schools, any teachers out there who can shed some light?" Or something like that...
You sound out of touch with what's happening in your congress halls. Funding for education has severely declined in the past 30 years, while military spending has grossly increased. Ask yourself where the problem is. While I do agree it's a shame that cursive is no longer taught I do feel this is something parents can teach us, if they are able to but also that society (even those without kids) should be investing more in the basics of children's educations. Learning to use one's hands to write a poem in cursive is beautiful.
No they don't teach like they used to
@@7eatheri was taught
@@7eatherbut i don’t remember at all so im watching this video :P
Hermosa caligrafía. Muchos éxitos!!!
Beautiful ! So elegant and so satisfying to watch!
Here in France cursive is taught in primary school and even preschool.
Of course it's not as sophisticated as the one on the video : )
okey
That was so satisfying to watch! I love this old style! I loved learning "American" cursive in 2nd grade! '82-'83!
Very little of this looks like the cursive I was taught in school. Also, we were always taught that the point of cursive writing was that the pen never left the paper--quite a few of these letters required 2, 3, or more separate strokes.
Desde pequena mi letra es muy bonita.... Pero siempre quiero mejorar y mejorar, hoy en dia ya casi nadie escribe, me encanta ver este tipo de videos, me dan ganas de escribir algo....
Since I was young I have beautiful handwriting, but I always want to get better and better.... I love to watch this kind of videos. Thank you!!!
São lindas e eu amo ver este trabalho e o carinho de quem sabe ensinar .😂 Bom dia !!!
I'm 61, in elementary, we had to learn cursive writing but we weren't pushed to write beautifully just legible. The schools stop teaching cursive a long time ago and I never knew some generations can't write in cursive...
Some people can't read cursive writing.
It's a mental block
I didn't even know the uppercase Q and S were written like that!! Thanks for the showcase, I really like your neat calligraphy! 本当にありがと！
So lovely. I hope the young people today will watch this video. At the bank while buying my home a young woman working there said my signatures didn’t match. I couldn’t imagine what she was talking about until I realized she didn’t understand what a cursive capital letter T looks like! It made me very sad.
That is really sad, as I remember this used to be taught at school. Something is off with the education system, just the other day I was explaining to the delivery girl where I live, and I said Yuri Gagarin street and she repeatedly asked who, and than I said the cosmonaut, and she said nothing. She really didn't know. I was appalled.
Television,entertainment,bad music,bad movies,video games... educating our young people.
It is not not just young people. Adults tend to have different handwriting and way of writing their names differently then as they grow as youth. At 46, my writing is different than at 26. But the next person my age would write different than me, then also different than both of us, the 3rd person our age writes their own way.
@@NeungView I can live with that ! 😆
Очень красиво, раньше все так писали. 👍👍👍👍👍
Very good and Very beautiful to remind the English hand righting.
Wow!! This is way more advanced than what I learned in school. Very Beautiful
Maravilhoso, amo escrever.
I loved teaching and using cursive. My arthritis prevents me from doing so well at it, but the concentration used whilst you write slowly can be very relaxing. What kind of pencil is this? Quite soft, no?
Really so beautiful handwriting
I love these calligraphy videos. My freehand calligraphy is getting better and better.
This is a Calligraphy version but very similar to the Penmanship we’ve learned in school, just not as ornately done.
Really very similar though! Beautiful job! And very calming to watch!
This is my favorite style
Muy bonita letra Amigo la voy ha practicar , está es la que más me ha gustado, felicidades

Absolutely beautiful ❤
Very good hand writing
Merci beaucoup c’est très joli !
I never get satisfied with my handwriting but in terms of getting the job done i think it's pretty good
Calligraphy is just beautiful. I love watching and with a little practice l'm sure that I can achieve it. Thinking back to early grade school 🏫, it was just pretty seeing the cursive alphabet. Thanks
Muy lindo trazo 👏
Gracias por compartir! Algunas letras no recordaba como se dibujaban
Que bonita letra . 🥰🥰saludos cordiales desde México 🇲🇽👍😉
I'm learning calligraphy and your videos are helping me a lot😀😀😀😄😄😄 thanks for this video 👌👌👌👌
This isn't just the English Alphabet!
Very nice calligraphy.
This is how many Dad writes, it's really beautiful. ❤️👏
Lovely! What a wonderful job!
This was nicely done. A few capital letters and lower case ones are different than I was taught in elementary. I guess it might have changed or there were different versions around the US. Regardless, I love seeing this, it was a beautiful trip down memory lane.
his writing is way better than my life
I used to learned it when I was in the 6th grade in 1983. It was hard at first, by keep trying to write slowly. I love the beauty shape of lines.. Thanks so much to you to remind me. You have the best hand writing 😊
glad I was taught in school when they actually taught
Yes sir still got it. Even though some people can't read it
This looks like a cross between cursive handwriting and calligraphy. There's quite a bit more flourish in many of these, particularly the upper case letters. Still pretty.
I agree.
Yesssss thank you I could not put my finger on why it wasn’t full cursive for some letters.
Agree.
Wait my name is flourish😧
It is copperplate writing. If you were a 19th century English accountant this is how you wrote.
Beautiful writing! Thank you for sharing this with us here! This is how I learned to write in 3rd grade!
What a beautiful handwriting 👏👏
That's some fancy cursive right there! I like it
(What you're writing isn't just "English alphabet". You're writing cursive in the style of calligraphy. Cursive isn't used/taught a lot in America anymore.. Typical English now is what is called "print" or "printing". It's a shame cursive isn't common anymore.
This is more of a calligraphy type of font. I learned to write in cursive ( it is still taught in eastern Europe) and we don't actually write with all of those wobbly lines and little dots because it takes time.
After a few years everyone has a mixed writing style , cursive and print too
I'm actually trying to learn calligraphy myself now and back when I was in school (I'm 32 now) we learned how to write in cursive in like 3rd grade or so. But now it's not even taught. I've got a friend of mine her daughter, my goddaughter got in trouble for writing in cursive on one of her papers and she's in the 4th grade I think it is and I was blown away to find out that she received a lower grade bc of writing it in cursive smh I was like wow wtf
@@princess2141990 that's interesting. Where I'm from it's older people who don't write cursive. My parents write in block capitals and me and my brother are always commenting on the fact they don't join their writing.
@@princess2141990 that is ridiculous!! I homeschool my son so he will be learning cursive this year. Do they expect signatures to be print now instead of cursive??
@@A-G5518 damn if I know. I'm in SC, the schools around here aren't really up to speed unlike other states I noticed back when I was going to school here. I mainly attended schools in NC and at the end of my 9th grade year my dad had passed away and I ended up having to move to SC and unfortunately my school I was going to messed up and put a zero down on my finals instead of a exempt bc of the death in immediate family and so had to redo 9th grade so when I started school down here they were teaching stuff in SC schools that I had learned like 2 or 3 years prior with some stuff in NC schools.
So beautiful !!! Thanks for you talent"
Beautiful hand writing
This is beautiful and I was lucky to have learned. I do make some letters a little bit different but still it is one of the most beautiful handwriting for sure.
カナダ人なんですけど、ずっと学校で習って、いろんな人の字を見たんですけど、その中でこの筆記体が一番美しいと思います🥺
それでも、やっぱり鉛筆を外すべきではないところで外してしまうのを見て、ちょっと胸が痛みます、、😂
一文字ずつ区切っているからなんでしょうかね。
５０代前半の年齢ですが、中学校で筆記体を学びました。区切る部分以外では、一筆書きのように鉛筆の先はノートに付けたまま書きました。
В 60-х годах нас учила так писать наш классный руководитель, учившая нас английскому языку. А мои дети, закончившие гимназию(!), пишут печатными буквами☹️
Thanks for the effort. There is no such a thing as "English alphabet", there has never been and there will never be. This is Latin alphabet. Rome gave alphabet to the barbarians. Period.
@@Tbot_2 appreciate your clarification
Who would've thought one could be so obsessed with handwriting !!
❤️✍️❤️
I couldn't stop watching this. Such a a work of art!
Beautiful and relaxing to watch. Thankfully a dying art being kept alive.
I don't write like that
“Dying art” yeah sure, in the U.S. I suppose.

Do you know how to write in shorthand and read shorthand ??
Unfortunately no, I don't know shorthand, but from the look of it, it's an art too.
@@EL-gu8fv
It kinda reminds me of the Chinese written language broken down in a straight line.
I took shorthand in highschool and sucked at it.
That's how I've always done my little Zs, it looks so cool when I put it in my tag.
I was taught this kind of writing and joined up at school in the uk.
When I was 8, everytime in English class we had cursive writing as a component in the English subject... On each sentence, and every single time, I get penalized for 'running off the grid' 😁, though my handwriting was ever neat (even up to this day😉). I was told off to make corrections by re-writing the same sentence for about 10-20 times, and each time I re-write, my writing still fell off the grid🤣🤣🤣 In the end my teacher said : well, son, you just created your own handwriting😎 At first, seeing this reminds me of having my fingers 'in shackles inside a penitentiary and being forced to write down the history of my life in cursive writing' 🤣. Really, kudos to this guy/girl with such beautiful handwriting😅😁 now I enjoy signing my documents and no longer see this as a form of detention😉 😊
3 types of people in the comments
1. 'This is so beautiful and amazing!'
2. 'You got it wrong'
3. 'I remember learning this at school'

Beautifully done. Your videos are so calming and beautiful. Thank you for another great video.

何か、覚えてたのと違う？っていうのが割りと多い気がしました。
Amazing mind blowing handwriting ❤❤😊
I too learned how to write in cursive in the third grade, back in 1965. I remember it well. The very fancy form of cursive you are showing here was popular in the 19th century. Most people at that time were eager to practice handwriting, and perfect their own style. This sort of thing helps immensely to organize the brain, and it's absence is just one contributing factor to the overall stupidity of the present era.
Linda caligrafia!! Parabéns!!! Qual tipo de grafite usou?
Não sou a pessoa que fez esse vídeo, mas vou te responder, pois a pessoa que gravou esse vídeo não é brasileira, então acredito que não irá entender a sua pergunta. Eu sei reconhecer traços de lápis grafite, esse que ele está usando é o 02 da linha escolar mesmo, não é nenhum especial. Se você quiser ir treinando com um grafite um pouco mais forte e macio, recomendo o grafite para desenhista, o número 3B ou 4B dá certo. Da linha B, quanto maior o número é, mais escuro é o pigmento, mas também as pontas se gastam mais fáceis, por serem macias demais. Por isso recomendo o 3B ou 4B, pois é um pouco mais forte que o tradicional e macio, mas não é tanto como o 8B, por exemplo. Depois que você pegar a prática, pode escolher as numerações maiores

this is fantastic. my goodness i miss the days of writin in beautiful cursive. whomever made this video should go 2 heaven.🤗🤗🤗

The lower case letter E shouldn't have been done in two parts. You would start with the tail on the left , arch at the top, come back down the tail to make the loop and then end with the tail on the right. The pen/ pencil should never leave the paper..
Absolutely correct
Do you have a printable copy of the letters we can by to use for practice?
