text: I know what the writer means but it's hard to describe. It's a small "bump" before letters like л and м that breaks up the minims to make them more readable. --AnWulf ... Wes þu hal! (talk) 10:35, 8 April 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  Connection of letters etc 

message: Is the cursive <и> not sometimes written with an underline to distinguish it from cursive <п>? A line over a <н> would obviously be confused with <й>, so the complete parallel with <т> and <ш> wouldn't work.    TomS TDotO (talk) 14:31, 5 January 2015 (UTC)

message: In the Russian language the word "figure" is written as "цИфра". Please, correct. --128.70.114.116 (talk) 15:56, 10 June 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: No, it is right, it is a scan from an old book, цифра was written with ы in the older orthography.--Lüboslóv Yęzýkin (talk) 12:20, 1 January 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  Mistake on the second picture 

message: Unlike English cursive, however, the Russian cursive system is not considered a "formal" style of writing.
Actually it is mandatory part of curriculum for 1st class, at least it used to be during USSR times.

thread_title:  Cursive is not a formal?!! 

message: A major problem with this article is that it seems to assume sometimes that putting text in italics will show the characters in their cursive form. This is not true for the default sans-serif fonts! --☸ Moilleadóir ☎ 05:15, 1 January 2016 (UTC)

thread_title:  Italic text ≠ Cursive 

message: As someone looking for a "how to" guide I was disappointed that the external worksheet link is broken, and was hoping for something with direction of strokes. There are very nice animations of Latin characters; is anyone up for making cyrillic animations? Sparafucil (talk) 22:07, 16 February 2016 (UTC)
thread_title: Animation

message: Found this document from Baylor University which has handwritten letterforms next to the printed glyphs for contrast. I think it would do well in this article to easily compare a letterform to its printed equivalent. Thoughts? 74.70.114.42 (talk) 04:31, 6 April 2016 (UTC)

thread_title:  Comparison to printed 

message: I've deleted the example with exam answer from the top of the page. I'm Russian and that was one of the least readable pieces of handwriting I've ever seen in my life. It definitely should not be the first example.178.66.176.93 (talk) 08:37, 8 September 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Russian cursive" example 

message: I've removed the images in which most of the lower-case hand-written letters were incorrect. Any Russian textbook shows that at the beginning of a word or in isolation, the letters а, б, д, и, й, к, н, о, п, р, с, т, у, ф, ц, ч, ъ, ы, ь and ю do not start with an upwards-slanting stroke. --Babel fish (talk) 15:10, 24 June 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: please mention what image you are talking about (:File:Russian Cursive Cyrillic.svg), otherwise people will keep re-adding it. Second, I'm a native Russian speaker, I write and read in cursive, and I didn't notice the strokes until I read your comment and looked at the image 3 times (one's brain filters them out, since they are part of the letters when written in combination). I'm surprised that you reacted so strongly to them; and IMHO chart of of modern Russian cursive forms (with or without combining strokes) is actually useful for readers, while the charts of pre-1917 forms only interest those who are decyphering 19th century documents.  As a solution, I suggest opening a discussion on the image's talk page to get the strokes removed — it's a 10 minute job in a graphics editor. — Tetromino (talk) 12:15, 19 June 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  Wrong lower-case letters 

message: The final и is wrong. The last stroke “hangs” like that only for the letter o, this is confusing and incorrect. Please correct this image. 64.79.133.104 (talk) 12:25, 5 August 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm the one who added that image. I think I can fix that on MS Paint. So, that last stroke should not be added? That's interesting... thanks for the heads up. --Bageense(disc.) 17:41, 7 August 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  “решили” example 

message: The image that leads this article is written by what I presume to be a student, but obviously a non-native speaker (no hate!). I don't think this is a good representation for Russian cursive. Is there another CC image we can replace it with? If not, I'll get a native speaker to write "Здравствуйте Википедия!" with "В чащах юга жил бы цитрус? Да, но фальшивый экземпляр!" (a pangram only missing ъ and ё) under it in Russian cursive.

replies: text: Yes, I'm a non-native speaker. My purpose was to provide a more natural looking handwriting, because all the russian cursive images we find on the internet are either gibberish or too perfect. That's why I said that handwriting was "average" - not because it looks like a native speaker handwriting, but because it doesn't belong to those extremes. --Bageense(disc.) 15:47, 29 September 2022 (UTC)
