I love polls/surveys. Since high school, I have noticed I write print far more often than cursive, opting for the legible over speed.

I find that I mix the two. I noticed it when helping the kindergartners write in their journals. So now I make sure to print only. Don't want to confuse them. lol | | | |

I hate hand writing anything.
Seriously. I type at over 100+ WPM, writing is SO freaking slow.
I tend to scribble/print/cursive combo...

Back in the third grade, there were three of us (me included) who were so adept at mastering the cursive letters as we practiced that we didn't have to do the extra practice. Fast forward nearly 30 years, and I'm lucky if I can read my own writing. Typing took over a long time ago. Even worse, when I was a newspaper reporter I developed a personal shorthand while taking notes that ruined my handwriting forever.
But when I have to, my writing looks like a mixture of printing and cursive. | | | |

I type most everything I can for two reasons:
1. Cursive looks like a Dr. wrote it..................
2. Printing looks like a cheerleader wrote it! LOL | | | |

when I am forced to write, I tend to print more often than not.
When I was in the military it was obviously all print and capital letters as well...I dare say I got pretty good at writing in all caps pretty fast | | | |

I stopped using cursive in the 8th grade when my teachers said they didn't care - just needed to be able to read it. The only cursive I use is my signature and you can't read that. (My daughter's friends have accused her of scribbling it herself on notes home.)

Scribble and hope I can read it later.
It's a hybrid between print and cursive. | | | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
