    The English writing has print and cursive; using the same letters, just forming them differently. Do other languages have this also?

    Question #123365. Asked by HannahConner88. (Aug 31 11 12:43 PM)

    Yes. Greek, English, Russian, and Chinese all use a cursive form amongst other languages.

    Thanks cubswin2323!! I've never seen other writings in cursive. Chinese would certainly been interesting to see.

    Hebrew as well. And Arabic. (I've written in both.)
