Talk:Thuluth

message: I have removed the following for being irrelevant. Thuluth belongs to the medieval era and is temporally far from whatever origins the Arabic script has. Anyway; The section I removed, as you can see, is just a big, unverified, unreadable bulk of words. I would call it nonsense! (That is; at least as much as the Thuluth is concerned) -- AMSA83
FROM NOUREDDINE:  It seems that you do not do calligraphy. The Turkish thuluth is far more developed than the proto Naskhi and is an aesthetic evolution of it. If you do calligraphy, you may find that the "Othmanic" script of Kuran is about the Non-Kufi style (by Othman the third Caliph). The Thuluth is a thorough version of the Naskhi, which is the hand-written cursive of Arabic writing. This is what I am referring to in my article, not the elaborate Turkish Thuluth. The Omarian Treaty of Jerusalem was written with this cursive lettering and it goes back to the Caliph Omar times.--Noureddine (talk) 19:10, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

message: Hi, I have made a "major" change, and included the Ottoman influences into modern day Sülüs or Thuluth. I would be delighted to answer any question you might have, feel free to drop me a line!
Cheers!

What on earth does that even mean?  The letters do not divide naturally into thirds.  —Tamfang (talk) 21:01, 13 January 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: I'd be interested in knowing more about this, too, but don't you think a calligrapher can figure out what a third of a line is? By "slopes", I would say it means "is at an angle" somewhere between the horizontal and the vertical. CorinneSD (talk) 21:42, 13 January 2015 (UTC)
replies: text:  Well, does "slopes" mean something different from "curves"?  Does the style bend ا to fit the rule?  Does it straighten some part or parts of ودن so that two-thirds are horizontal or vertical? —Tamfang (talk) 22:18, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

replies: text: My understanding of slope is a vertical gradient; curve usually connotes a horizontal arc. Sca (talk) 21:38, 1 August 2015 (UTC)
