Hey ^^
So I’m new here on the forum and wanted to know if my handwriting was okay or not, and where I have to improve
Please take a look :) (Sorry for bad quality)

October 3, 2012 at 11:35 am #35909From just looking at it fast, I can tell you that
your ほ is written wrong
your お should probably have a far larger circle, and the dot is placed wrong.
You can embed images by using (img)link(/img) using brackets instead of parentheses :)

October 3, 2012 at 12:38 pm #35915Oh thanks a ton :D
I didn’t realize I made them wrong :D
October 3, 2012 at 1:05 pm #35916Specifically, the last stroke in the ほ should start at the top horizontal stroke.
I have terrible handwriting, so I probably shouldn’t judge others’, but…
- さ, き, そ and ふ all look a bit different in handwritten style – it’s a bit hard to describe, but in each case, one of the strokes is done as two, with a break in between.
- The second stroke on the い should be a little smaller (otherwise it risks looking like a り).
- The dash on the か should be to the right of the character (otherwise you risk confusing it with a や)
- う, し and つ need to curve a bit less sharply
- The dash on the む should be a littlefurther to the top-right
- The first stroke on the ら is more of a dash than a bar.
- The る and ろ need to finish a bit further to the left. Also, be careful to make them different – it looks a little like you’ve started to draw a loop on the ろ and then changed your mind.
- れ and わ should loop up and out more.
Some of these might be kinda quibbles, but penmanship is seen as rather important in Japan.
October 3, 2012 at 1:13 pm #35918Lol he was asking if it was okay, not if it was perfect xD
October 3, 2012 at 1:14 pm #35919… Says the guy who immediately picked on the ほ =P
October 3, 2012 at 1:17 pm #35920I only pointes out what confused me when reading, and you must admit that both ほ お were hard to read? Maybe it comes down to the fonts you are used to. :S
October 3, 2012 at 1:24 pm #35921^^
the さ, き, そ and ふ part was what i wondered about the most, I tried learning to write from here, and everytime I clicked on one of these I thought something must be wrong on the site :D
I just started Hiragana a week ago so these tips are highly appreciated, I think I better learn it right from the start ;)
October 3, 2012 at 3:25 pm #35924Apart from the problems pointed above, it all looks okay to me but maybe you might want to make the last stroke on あ just a little bit longer?
Btw your を and ん are beautiful.
