Hi.
I have been trying to learn handwritten Russian as I have got the hang of reading text written Russian. I am finding it hard though with handrussian. 't' looks like 'm' !!!
Anyway, is there a resource online that will allow me to type into handwritten Russian? Kind of like an online keyboard?
Thanks
Andy
Hmmmm... If you type in italic with most fonts the text looks a bit more like handwritten...Quote:

Andrew - it's actually only a question of muscle memory :wink:
Try this: find yourself a LOOOOOONG Russian text, and sit down and copy it (even if you haven't got a clue what it means :lol: ). Again and again. Not a couple of words, full text, text, text. Half an hour in the morning, half an hour in the evening.
After a week you'll be writing cyrillic like it's the only thing you've ever done. ;)
Or his hands will fall off and he'll be a raving lunatic. It's a 50-50 chance really...Quote:

How hard can it be to learn Russian handwriting. I never remembered having any trouble.
You are a super-genius polyglot. Some of us suck at languages. :wink:Quote:

is the addy, I haven't tried them though, I'm curious how well they work.
Nope. Never knew this existed. But now that I do, does this satisfy OP?:Quote:

Technically that's a Bulgarian font, but others work fine for Russian on that page...?
this one is really good. reminded me my first grade at school. yes, start with page 5, don't bother with all the little houses and other pictures.Quote:

Damn it I hate cursive. I never write in cursive even in English. Meh!
My Russian and Ukrainian handwritings are much better than my English handwriting.Quote:

Windows and Mac pcs.
It has the old letters like yat' and fita, too.
Russian small (cursive, not block) "т" is English "m".Quote:
't' looks like 'm'
Mistral. Download "Mistral" font and switch to cyrillic.
