I'm just wondering if anyone can give me feedback and comments on my cyrillic handwriting. I've just started practicing it. I picked out random words, it's really just a writing exercise without any attention given to meaning or grammar or whatever else.

Basically, I'd like to know if I'm on the right track, and if there's anything I should be paying more attention to.

Thanks!

On the other thread you learned about the little tails used to separate м from the
preceding and following letters, right?

Well, я and л both work in the same way.

Also, you don't need a line over м. You should use a line over т and a line under ш.

Otherwise it looks pretty good. Well done for working on this - it's definitely worth
the effort.

That's exactly the sort of feedback I was hoping to get. That definitely helps, thanks a lot! I'll make sure to correct that the next time I practice.

Wow, those sheets are an absolutely brilliant idea.

You mentionned the 55 degrees one, but what do you think of the 52 degrees ones : they're described as specifically designed for cursive handwriting.

I'll print out a few of each, see how they feel to me. Thanks a lot!

EDIT : I think I prefer those you suggested, the 55 degrees ones, they look much clearer, less cluttered. Thanks again!

Pay attention to combinations like СЛ and M + vowel.
In улица your л must be higher than и - you wrote УШЦА

On this picture you can see the right way of writing - that's what children learn:

Yes, I realize this now. I fixed both problems by making sure I make those extra lower tails before and after л - and м, for that matter.

You say some people will make the л taller than the и? As it's shown on the picture you added, they seem to be exactly the same height to me...? Otherwise, this image shows much more clearly than I'd seen before how the connections should be between the letters. Thanks!
