Yeah, it feels quite straightforward. Of course, it'll get more complex the further you go whilst learning.

Your handwriting is the kind classified as 'it is well'


Lmao this is so hilarious grin
Re: Is Handwriting Genetic? by folake4u(f): 9:23pm On Apr 12, 2020
I have a really good handwriting.
My parents handwritings are just there, very legible though.

My dad particularly loves my handwriting and would make me write something for him even when there are other people available to do so cheesy

I actually thought about this yesterday. My kid brother has similar writing as my dad but his letters are more widely spaced. Mine is more like my dads but my dad has better writing anytime any day. on close sent examination I saw that the 3 writings have lots in common despite influences from our travels, schooling, etc. This OPs topic has brought me to the thought that some form of hereditary component to our motor skills may be contributory.


I also noticed that the wife of our new neighbour shares similar walking pattern and posture as 3 of the kids. just one walks love like the father.

DON'T MIND ME. THE LOCKDOWN is making me see things in HD

Interesting topic.

To answer the question: I don't think it's genetic.

I know people who have Ugly handwritings and their Parents don't.

Handwriting is a learned activity. If the Parents are well learned, chances are that the offsprings will also be inculcated with good, proper handwriting.

It is all a product of the creative ability, also how early and how well the child is introduced to proper handwriting practice.

I have a very beautiful handwriting if I do say so myself cheesy

When I was in secondary school, I used to maintain different handwritings for some specific subjects and you will hardly believe they all belonged to the same person! It nearly got me into trouble though.
I have a primary handwriting which is the main one, then others according to my mood. All beautiful.
My parents and siblings likewise all have fine writings but one of the finest handwritings I've seen belong to my cousin and uncle.
I started writing quite early though, and I can also write ugly to disguise or when I'm not in the mood.

Hello there, for some reason your email went to SPAM when you sent it. I have responded, my apologies for the very late response. I just checked randomly now and I was like omg lol

Someone with an eye for beauty can create fonts. Good handwriting isn’t hard, it’s a matter of practice like anything else in life.

My dad has the most beautiful hand writing I've ever seen. He receives compliments from almost anyone that gets to see him write. Mine, on the other hand, is more or less meh. grin Just about as good as Pocoha.ntas', but better than that of Ibkay.ee. grin

So, it is not genetic.

I see...

Anyway, @OP, I don't think it is. Not in my case, though.
