Lowercase v in Cursive
Watch the lowercase v being written, then follow the numbered steps. Start with a small hook at the midline, then roll over the top into a hump or slant.
Step by step
- Start with a small hook at the midline.
- Pull a slanted stroke down to the baseline and curve up the right side.
- End with a small bridge stroke at the midline.
Tip: The v ends at the midline, so the next letter starts from a bridge stroke up there.
How v joins
v joins every lowercase letter. It finishes high, at the middle line, so the next letter starts up there with a bridge instead of from the baseline.
