How to write right in cursive
- Start with the r (undercurve, slide right, slant, undercurve): an undercurve, a short slide to the right at the midline, then a slant down.
- Swing up into the i (undercurve, slant, undercurve; dot): a short undercurve and slant, with the dot added after the word is finished.
- Swing up into the g (downcurve, undercurve, slant, loop, overcurve): the oval of an a followed by a descender loop that crosses back on the baseline.
- Swing up into the h (undercurve, loop, slant, overcurve, slant, undercurve): a tall loop followed by a hump, like an l and an n joined together.
- Swing up into the t (undercurve, slant, undercurve; cross): a tall retraced undercurve and slant, shorter than the l, crossed after the word is written.
- After the word, dot the i, cross the t.
