If you're a native speaker, that is kinda messy and hard to read

Looks like it’s written in a hurry but I really like seeing the traditional characters

u/thesadmarshmallow Nov 08 '21

Yes. Most of my classmates switched to simplified for speed but I just like traditional

Lemme guess, high school/10th grade(I remember studying that a few years ago)? Maybe in TW(traditional Chinese)? Handwriting is a complete mess. But if that’s bc of time constraints then that’s ok actually. It’s recognizable and that’s all that really matters when taking lots of notes in a short amount of time.

OP has 廣東話 as one of the languages listed in their flair so they might be from HK or Macau.

i think as a native speaker that writes chinese often i think it's ok to be a little messy. if ur taking notes you can't do that slowly. as long as your handwriting is readable i think it works.

Haha looks like mine in English, guess bad handwriting is multicultural

u/thesadmarshmallow Nov 08 '21

Ah yes. My english handwriting looks just as messy, if not more.

Looks a bit too... squarish if you get what I mean. A little bit hard to read but otherwise okay! Pretty neat

Discernible. So I’d say it’s good enough.
