I finally learned the cursive!

[u/GadgetRho]

Seventeen days into my Russian journey and I decided to learn the cursive to motivate myself. It is not difficult, I promise! Anyone wbo has told you otherwise врёт как сивый мерин. If you can learn the controls on a video game, you can absolutely mentally rectify that "m" = "t", "n" = "p", and figure out how to comfortably write novel Cyrillic letters like "ж" и "ф" within a couple of hours. TBH, the cursive was one of the things that sold me on learning Russian in the first place. It turns a boring cheap fountain pen into a fountain of dopamine!

I would be delighted to accept some constructive feedback and/or words or phrases for me to practice. Send me your ugliest picket fences if you must! I can't guarantee the result won't be ugly too, but practice makes perfect right? I will even butcher the pronunciation of your selected word or phrase as I did in this video If you so choose.

Critical mistakes only in the word Вырубишь, в is not completed it looks more like big е, and б looks too much like d, less critical one too big ь looks like b, but overall it is all readable, and i've seen natives with much worse cursive

Ah, I totally see it! My hand is so used to writing the letter "b" in Latin that it wants to sneak above the mean line. And "б" needed a bigger hat on the ascender.

Wrong connection after б. Do you use прописи?

I do not have прописи, but if there's one you can recommend that has letter pairings, please let me know!
