How to write lowercase v in cursive
Stroke by stroke
- Start with a small overcurve that rises to the midline.
- Pull down to a point on the baseline.
- Swing straight up to the midline on the right.
- Finish with a short bridge to the right along the midline.
Common mistakes
- Round bottom. A round bottom turns v into u. Keep a clean point.
- Dropping the exit. Leaving from the baseline makes v look like a u or an n. Keep the bridge at the midline.
- Sharp start. Starting with a point instead of a hump can make v look like a small w. Round the start.
Easy to confuse with
Lowercase v is often confused with u, n and r. The point at the bottom separates v from u, and the bridge at the midline separates it from n and r.
Joining to the next letter
Lowercase v exits at the midline, so the next letter starts from the top of its body. In ve, add a small dip so the loop of e still forms. Vi drops into a point for i. Va and vo run the bridge straight into the top of the next oval.
