Введение
Хотя во многих частях мира люди используют общие алфавиты и системы счисления (различные варианты латинского письма распространены в Америке, Австралии, большей части Европы и Африки; арабские цифры почти повсеместно приняты), формы рукописных букв различаются у разных людей, а иногда и систематически меняются в зависимости от региона.
Although people in many parts of the world share common alphabets and numeral systems (versions of the Latin writing system are used throughout the Americas, Australia, and much of Europe and Africa; the Arabic numerals are nearly universal), styles of handwritten letterforms vary between individuals, and sometimes also vary systematically between regions.
Латинская письменность
Маленькая буква a: эта буква часто пишется от руки как одноэтажная "ɑ" (круг и вертикальная линия, примыкающая к правой стороне круга), вместо двухэтажной "a", встречающейся во многих шрифтах. (См.: A#Типографические варианты)
The lowercase letter g: In Polish, this letter is often rendered with a straight descender without a hook or loop. This effectively means that a handwritten g looks much like a q in other writing traditions. The letter q, which is only used in foreign words and is extremely rare, is then disambiguated from g by adding a serif (often undulated) extending to the right from the bottom tip of the descender. The lowercase letter p: The French way of writing this character has a half way ascender as the vertical extension of the descender, which also does not complete the bowl at the bottom. In early Finnish writing, the curve to the bottom was omitted, thus the resulting letter resembled an n with a descender (like ꞃ). The lowercase letter q: In block letters, some Europeans like to cross the descender to prevent confusion with the numeral 9, which also can be written with a straight stem. In North America the descender often ends with a hook curving up to the right In Polish, the lowercase q is disambiguated from g by a serif extending from the bottom tip of the descender to the right. The lowercase letter s: See long s.
The lowercase letters u and v: These letters have a common origin and were once written according to the location in the word rather than the sound. The v came first; the u originally had a loop extending to the left and was only used to start words. All other locations for either u or v were written with the latter. In Germany (especially southern Germany), Austria and Switzerland, lowercase u is often written with a horizontal stroke or swish over it (ŭ, ū, ũ), to distinguish it from n. (cf. German orthography#handwritten umlauts)
The uppercase letter I: This letter is often written with one stroke on the top of the letter and one on the bottom. This distinguishes it from the lowercase letter l, and the numeral 1, which is often written as a straight line without the ear. The uppercase letter J: In Germany, this letter is often written with a long stroke to the left at the top. This is to distinguish it from the capital letter "I". The uppercase letter S: In Japan, this letter is often written with a single serif added to the end of the stroke. The uppercase letter Z: This letter is usually written with three strokes. In parts of Europe such as Italy, Germany and Spain, it is commonly written with a short horizontal crossbar added through the middle. This version is sometimes preferred in mathematics to help distinguish it from the numeral 2. In Polish, the character Ƶ is used as an allographic variant of the letter Ż. In Japan it is often written with a short diagonal crossbar through the middle In France, it is often written with a loop at the bottom. The lowercase letter z: In the cursive style used in the United States and most Australian states (excluding South Australia), this letter is written as an ezh (ʒ).
Маленькая буква g: в польском языке эта буква часто изображается с прямым нисходящим элементом без крючка или петли. Фактически, рукописная g может выглядеть как q в других системах письма. Буква q, которая используется только в заимствованных словах и встречается крайне редко, затем различается с g путем добавления засечки (часто волнистой), выступающей справа от нижнего конца нисходящего элемента.

Маленькая буква p: французский способ написания этой буквы имеет полувыносной элемент, как вертикальное продолжение нисходящего, которое также не образует замкнутую чашу внизу. В раннем финском письме нижняя дуга опускалась, в результате чего буква напоминала n с нисходящим элементом (как ꞃ).

Маленькая буква q: в печатном наборе некоторые европейцы предпочитают перечеркивать нисходящий элемент, чтобы избежать путаницы с цифрой 9, которую также можно написать прямой линией. В Северной Америке нисходящий элемент часто заканчивается крючком, изогнутым вверх вправо. В польском языке маленькая q различается с g засечкой, выступающей справа от нижнего конца нисходящего элемента.

Маленькие буквы u и v: эти буквы имеют общее происхождение и раньше писались в зависимости от позиции в слове, а не от звука. Буква v появилась первой; буква u изначально имела петлю, направленную влево, и использовалась только в начале слов. Во всех остальных позициях для u или v использовалась буква v. В Германии (особенно в Южной Германии), Австрии и Швейцарии маленькая u часто пишется с горизонтальным штрихом или росчерком над ней (ŭ, ū, ũ), чтобы отличить ее от n. (см.
