How to write Savannah in cursive
- Start with a capital S (undercurve, loop, double curve, curve up, curve right). Start at the baseline. Make an undercurve up to the topline and a loop back to the left.
- Lift the pencil after the S, then write the a (downcurve, undercurve, slant, undercurve): a small oval closed at the midline, then a slant down and an undercurve out.
- Swing up into the v (overcurve, slant, undercurve, checkstroke): an overcurve down to the baseline and back up, ending with a checkstroke at the midline.
- From the checkstroke of the v, write the a (downcurve, undercurve, slant, undercurve): a small oval closed at the midline, then a slant down and an undercurve out.
- Swing up into the n (overcurve, slant, overcurve, slant, undercurve): two rounded humps made with overcurves.

Savannah questions
How many strokes does it take to write Savannah in cursive?
2 strokes: 2 continuous runs of letters, because a capital that stands alone forces a pencil lift. Inside a word the pencil stays on the paper; dots and crosses are added once the word is finished.
Which letters in Savannah are joined at the midline?
The v. This letter ends with a short bridge stroke at the midline, so the next letter starts from the top rather than from the baseline. That is what makes "Savannah" look different from a word with only baseline joins.
Is Savannah capitalized in cursive?
Yes. Savannah is a name, so it always starts with a capital S. The capital S stands alone: lift the pencil after it.
What is the hardest letter in Savannah?
The s. Cursive s is the most searched letter for a reason: it looks nothing like print. Write it as an upstroke with a little belly, not as a snake.
