How to write walk in cursive
- Start with the w (undercurve, slant, undercurve, slant, undercurve, checkstroke): two undercurves like a u, plus a checkstroke at the midline.
- From the checkstroke of the w, 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 l (undercurve, loop, slant, undercurve): one tall loop, the simplest tall letter.
- Swing up into the k (undercurve, loop, slant, overcurve, loop, curve right, undercurve): a tall loop like an l, then a small loop at the midline and a kick-out stroke.
How the letters in walk connect
- wa w to a: a checkstroke join. The w ends at the midline, so the a starts from the top instead of from the baseline.
- al a to l: an undercurve join. The exit stroke of the a swings up into the l.
- lk l to k: an undercurve join. The exit stroke of the l swings up into the k.
