Thread: What does this say?

I am not used to reading handwritten Russian

В отличной форме, с безупречным содержанием!

Wow. What a crazy ж!

Thanks

My granny used to write ж like that, maybe it's just old "style"?

No, I admit that's a kind of expressing your character in hand-writing. You know the science of guessing who people are just by looking how they write this or that element of a letter. Such stretched and curled parts seem to mean that the person who wrote them likes attention and can exaggerate situations.

(I love stretching mm letters myself)

Nice penmanship. Artistic handwriting, Biancca? Did you get it off a greeting card?

Its just from here

wow, I wish my cyrillic cursive was that good! I really like it, although it seems very personalized style.. especially that crazy Ж...

I think it's important that your writing be readable by others, especially if you're a student. Teachers are more likely to assume that you're wrong if you try to do something stylized like this than if you just do it the normal way.

c'mon guys, I've seen more жs like that than I have seen фs like the one on that image- why didn't you complain about that? If my students wrote as well as that I would bow down to them.

The ф was unintelligible to me too. It almost looks like one of my "q"s


I like the д.

It's readable and pretty accurate. Any native speaker will read it easily.

I agree with gromozeka that the whole text is intellible and virtually any native could read what's written on that pic. Since I've seen loads of styles of writing, it's pretty easy for me to make out very untidy styles. This one looks very neat to me, though.

I agree, but
a) Not all teachers are native speakers.
b) IMHO, teachers prefer standard-ness to extravagance.
