Hi guys, I've been studying Fred Eager in the hopes of writing like the examples provided in the beginning of the book, but I wonder if I'll be able to write as fast as I do nowadays. Mr Eager confirms that: he says cursive italic should go as fast as our previous way of writing. In the speed test he prompts us to do I got a speed of 200 letters per minute. Do you think that speed is attainable in a beautifully written cursive italic?

Let’s return to a classic romance. Where letters are written and exchanged. The beautiful words upon the page, a beautiful expression of adoration. The sweet scent of perfume and after shave .
The lovely cursive flowing with the emotions. With unblemished and permanent ink. Never to be erased. The picture you can carry next to your heart. Another letter stored away in a secret place for a rainy day. When we are down we read the words again and they lift us up. So let’s return to classic romance and may it never die.

Hello - I'm V. I am not good at being social, but here's hoping I can still learn how while I recover from some long-term injuries. I love music, movies, books, history, and art, especially fantasy/sci-fi, and I love to build and create things (I've got a full Mandalorian armor on my workbench right now, and several other cosplay builds pending). I am a huge animal lover. I previously traveled internationally, and would love to do so again after I recover. I know a little bit of German, Spanish, and a tiny bit of Korean.
Let me know if you'd be interested in talking!
Edit: I'm open to writing letters/postcards too - I was taught cursive by an old German woman, so it's a little Rambunctious.

So I was just listening to the “We’re Getting Older” episode (I know I’m way behind) and thought this might interest yall. They mention cursive being old and outdated during the episode, but in rare cases it’s not. I work at a school for kids with dyslexia and dysgraphia. They’re taught cursive from 3rd grade to 5th grade and use it until high school. They don’t have to once they reach there and we know they might not use it. But for writing on paper, a lot of our kids prefer cursive because they don’t have to pick up the pencil from the paper. With dyslexia and dysgraphia, it’s like writing with your non-dominant hand but only looking at the paper through a mirror. It’s really difficult. With cursive, they don’t have to pick up the pencil to write a new letter, which also helps them with spelling because they don’t have to focus more on writing on the line. So just a fun fact!

Inspired by u/HAZARD_LEVEL_SEVEN and his ballsy move of ultimate hate, I too will declare a binding vow of my king returning. I have absolute trust in my GOAT returning far beyond any hate of sukuna glazers.
While there is nothing but respect for hazard's choice, I refuse to let any sukuna glazers be seen in a positive light so consider this a fuck you to your declaration. I refuse to stop glazing my glorious sex eyed king until the day I die. From 236 my GOAT has been whispered to come back, and not for a second will I believe he was a bluff.
WITHOUT FAILURE has my goat had ripple effects from the start. From the beginning there was one goat. The one man to stand alone as the honored one. To kill the notorious sorcerer killer brandishing myriads of weapons at just the high school level. The one man to singlehandedly fight the disaster curses all at once. The man that SAT UPON SUKUNA LIKE THE THRONE HE WAS TO HIM. If it means my goat lives, I shall take any punishment. But even with this risk, I believe just one outcome. Even with the greatest sukuna glazer writing the manga, would we lose? We who have prayed for times like these from the moment our angel broke its wings?
Nah, We'd Win
My binding vow is as follows: IF I am wrong, please ban me from this sub permanently, following a handwritten cursive letter using a fancy pen declaring my stupidity and folly, and why sukuna is the goat, along with the purchase of merchandise regarding sukuna.
IF I am right, I will laugh exorbitantly.

You all. I’m even embarrassed to ask this and I’ve used my Cricut so much but I’m one of those that when I’m done I forget everything and each project is like I’m a novice again. 🙄
So I’m trying to print simple text on black vinyl to put in a shadowbox for a year end teacher gift but I’m seriously getting stuck at the san serif text and how I connect them so that when I cut it on my Cricut it’s all one piece and not letter by letter. Does that make sense? The cursive font I’ve got all connected but how do we handle that with block letters? I can’t use transfer tape bc I’m putting it on a cardboard base so it will tear the paper.
I’m sure I’m overcomplicating this. Am I? Am I just not thinking about this clearly?

So, this is embarrassing, but I cannot read cursive very well, so trying to figure out what about 20 percent of the letter from Mother Ma'kayla (building better worlds expedition 2) is like translating a story written in another language for me. Can anyone who's better at reading cursive essentially transcribe it for me so I can figure out what all it says? lol

My spelling can look so messy because I can do random letters in cursive but not the rest 😆

I am working on a logo that I got from an SVG file and it has cursive lettering that's all attached. I scaled it up to where it needs to be but I need the letters themselves to be thicker, I don't know how to accomplish this without making the dimensions on the letters change. It seems like such a simple fix but I can't figure it out.

Hi all. I would like to recommend the most interesting work by Ernst Axel Knauf. I will quote the most interesting quotes (from my point of view) here. But I still advise you to read the entire article, as it is written in a very accessible and understandable language.
author's profile at the academy: https://unibe-ch.academia.edu/ErnstAxelKnauf?swp=tc-au-28366493
read the article: https://archive.org/details/arabo-aramaic-and-arabiyya-from-ancient-arabic-to-early-standard-arabic-200-ce-600-ce
"Nabatean Arabic became some sort of standard Arabic as early as the second century bce, but it was a spoken, not a written language, and it was, in the beginning, of no interest to anyone outside the relatively small circle of Arabian international traders and shippers. It became a written language between the third and fourth century ce in post-Nabatean texts.96 500 years of Old Arabic–Ancient Arabic coexistence and/or diglossia can now be considered."
"The Nabatean script is a cursive script. It was developed for writing on “paper” or its ancient equivalents. It reflects the needs of a society of traders who had to keep accounts and set up contracts. Only secondarily, with the onset of conspicuous architectural consumption at the end of the first century bce, their utilitarian cursive script was put to lapidary, epigraphic use. Unfortunately for the perception of Nabatean society through modern eyes, it is their “luxury” (and basically non-essential) written record which dominates the data base, whereas the main output of Nabatean scribal activities, the papyri, have only survived in meager installations, like the Nabatean papyri from the Babatha archive.106"
"With the imperial crisis of the second half of the third century, Greek lost its splendor in the East: the Parthians' Sasanid successors wrote Middle Persian (and Aramaic, for that was the language of their economical powerhouse, the Iraq); Arabs ( if not Christianized) turned away from both Greek and Aramaic."
"Aramaic, no longer in use for written business transactions among the Arabs themselves, remained present in pre-Islamic Arabia from the fourth through the sixth/seventh centuries through the Jewish and Christian communities which felt no urge to translate their scriptures into Arabic; a fact which one day early in the seventh century ce would instigate a failed merchant from Mecca to give his fellow Arabs a “liturgy” or “recitation” (in Arabic: qurʾān) in plain Arabic, obviously being of the opinion that the other monotheistic religions had failed, or neglected, to do so."
"From time to time the assumption resurfaces that the Arabic script did not develop from Nabatean Aramaic but from Syriac. It can be traced back to early Muslim scholarship,128 but it has no other argument in its favor than the relationship of the written word to the line: while Nabatean is sublinear (the letters are hanging from the line), Syriac and Arabic are supralinear (the letters are standing on the line). This feature can be explained by the easier assumption that Nabatean writing (the origin of all individual letters) was influenced by a Syriac adstrate in Arabian scribal practice during the fourth and fifth centuries ce. (Hoyland, “Language and Identity,” 196, with n. 50.)"
"Cursive writing with diacritical points indicates that throughout the fourth through sixth centuries ce Arabian merchants continued to trade merchandise and to keep records of their business in the Early Standard Arabic which they had inherited from the Nabateans.144"
"The cultic origins of Poetic Old Arabic with its archaic and, in prose and everyday speech quite superfluous case-endings are, especially since the discovery of Avdat 1, no longer questionable. On the other hand, Luxenberg has reopened the question of how pagan (instead of non-standard Christian) pre-Islamic Arabic really was.151"...
I’ll stop at the most interesting point, the article is very informative, be sure to read the footnotes and bibliography. Good luck.

So I was looking through AO3 define a fanfiction cuz I was bored and something that just drives me insane so much is when authors side to use like fancy lettering that are really hard to read in their summaries cuz I'm dyslexic so I already have a hard time reading a lot of stuff but then when you use fonts that are like cursive or Don't know what it's called but this is literally a word directly from the one I saw that made me want to talk about this "𝕔𝕙𝕚𝕔𝕠" I don't know what this font is called but it drives me insane It is so hard to read please I am begging you if you are making a summary please put it in regular font

Hi, I just moved to Michigan from Virginia with my boyfriend. It’s been almost 5 months. I’m tired of being around his family and would like friends outside of it. lol We have nothing in common. And I can tell you all about it in a letter or email lol. About me -I like crochet & cross stitching - playing sims 2 atm -writing. Trying to get better at cursive - cooking -I live in a camper so we can talk about that if you want -like Coke Zero - and I enjoy a long email or letter
I’m sure I’m missing stuff but that’s kinda the point of the letters right?
I’m looking for female penpals because I’m surrounded by dudes, apparently his family cannot produce women which is great for them but not for me socially.
