Буду воспринимать "пару лет назад" как комплимент. Это не я, но примерно так было и в моем классе.

На чистописание.

Ещё одна фотка с чистописанием на доске. На фотке не я.

Чистописание дестей лучше чем мое чистописание...

When I write in russian I just copy the printed letters. I'm not going to be hand writing Russian for a long time, if ever, but typing Russian, yes. I think copying the printed letters is easier for my spelling.

That's what I do. I don't know why, but it just seems weird to me to write the letters as they're hand-written. I just copy the typed letters. I know how to read and write all the letters both ways, it's just more natural for the typed version. Maybe i'm weird (probably).

I thought that way also, but once I actually started writing instead of printing (in the class I'm taking, we have to write, and cannot print), it was pretty easy to get the hang of it. Of course, my writing sucks, so the teacher is probably going to make an exception for me to be able to print!

Sample de jour (sorry for the crappy quality, it's from my camera phone):

It looks okay except for the л. Just need to practice over and over and then you'll be able to write perfectly and as fast as you write in English.

Should the л be more open at the bottom, instead of thin?

Where are you at in California, Spiderkat?

Your л needs to breathe and the one you drew is kinda skiny and looks like the upper case one. The lower case is a bit different. Take a look here.

Actually I don't live very far from you, in LA county.

Молодец, Фантом! Хороший почерк. Чёрточка над "т" ну нужна и "л" должно быть такой же высоты, как и другие буквы.
Я бы никогда не подумала, что писать печатными буквами легче или быстрее, чем прописными, ну разве что маленьким детям.

Большое спасибо, лампада!

I'll work on it!

Looks like the exact same .jpg you'll see if you click on the link I gave.

Are you a native Russian, Spiderkat? If so, how long have you lived in LA County?

Well, I'm not, I'm just a Western European guy who's been living here for over five years.

It's pretty good. My handwriting is not much better :)

It is the same. Thanks for finding it. I thought that it would be nice to see it straight.
