      Penmanship has less to do with laziness or competence and more to do with time pressure. I’m a doctor, would you rather me spend time perfecting my handwriting (which is actually neat) or look after my patients?

    • @Silvermouse27
      @Silvermouse27 4 ปีที่แล้ว +33

      @Evelyn Rivera Garcia Definitely! For example ‘SH2 # P1 L) LF’ means ‘Salter Harris 2 fracture of the proximal phalanx of the left little finger’. So much more efficient! Makes sense to our hand therapists but complete gobbledygook to anyone else!

      It’s certainly not impossible, especially if you are trained from an early age to write a specific kind of handwriting, but for a lot of us, especially of we just take our own handwriting and improve it with age (my case), the ‘design’ of letters we use changes with words or with our mood.

    My teacher always told my class that good handwritings come through practice ✍🏻 A tip for beginners is to practice writing on the lined notebooks while noticing the capital line, middle line, and base line. Next, practice your neat handwriting as often as possible! When the muscle memory develops, you will write neat handwritings effortlessly ✨ Practice makes perfect. Hope this helps!

    @adorabell4253 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Fun thing: the traditional pen hold (tripod on middle finger) was developed for the dip and fountain pen. The 45 or so degree angle that you get is great for letting the ink flow out smoothly with the minimum of pressure needed. Modern ballpoint, gel, fineliner, etc, pens will work better in an upright grip as it will put the pen tip in best contact with the paper. But, due to history, we are all taught a grip that fights modern pens. So, use whatever grip works best for you unless you want to write with a fountain pen, then practice the traditional grip for best results.

    BTW I live in India and our curriculum is mostly writing based and writing down tons of questions and answers. If anyone wanted to know.

    what you said about how a writing utensil can help you write neater is so true! I remember using only pencils for school because our teacher did not allow pens because "they bleed through the paper" or something like that (which is not true) and when our new teacher let us use pens, my handwriting changed dramatically from messy and big (and I also got a lot of hand cramps from the wooden pencils) to neat and small (no more hand cramps because of the grip on a gel pen 🙂). So if you're not happy with your handwriting, change your writing utensil! 🙂😉🖊

    Hey, we hold our pens the same way!!!! Everyone always tells me that it’s the wrong way, but I just automatically rest my pen on the fourth finger too 😂 :)

    I totally had to train myself to not rest the pencil on the ring finger, it took a while, but there was a huge difference once I made that change, not as tiring. So glad I did!

      i've had a bump ever since I basically started school. My friends hold their pencils differently, and I tried to hold my pencil like them, but it was super uncomfortable. No teachers or anything told me my handwriting was weird though

    i am such a perfectionist when it comes to my handwriting. in class i would always rewrite an entire page that i didn't like. btw if you want to learn a specific way of writing a letter or a number i advise trying to use it as many times as possible and then it just comes naturally with time (it doesnt take a lot of time tho)
