Can someone explain why one cannot read cursive? It is just a tilted (sometimes fancy) font, what's so hard about it?
Edit: After being made aware by a fellow lemmy'er and googling it, it seems I confused cursive with italics, English is not my first language. Though I learned cursive at school when I was 6 without realizing it is called cursive in English. It was part of the basic curriculum at that time, didn't know this wasn't a thing in other countries.
It's not though like why the fuck is s a triangle that's the only thing I know about it and can't read it
It is not a triangle, it is a slash with a hook like /J but combined. You never lift your pen of the paper to write a word. Dots and dashes are added after the word is finished.
I'm sorry how is not a triangle
A tri-angle has three angles
