How to write Jose in cursive
- Start with a capital J (overcurve, slant, loop, overcurve). Start at the baseline. Curve over to the topline, then slant down through the baseline into the descender space.
- Swing up into the o (downcurve, undercurve, checkstroke): a closed oval that ends with a checkstroke at the midline.
- From the checkstroke of the o, write the s (undercurve, curve down, undercurve): an undercurve to the midline, a curve back down that closes on the upstroke, then an undercurve out.
- Swing up into the e (undercurve, loop, slant, undercurve): a small loop between the baseline and the midline.
