  The print, i.e. write detached letters, not attached letter like cursive.

    I think there is a fair argument to be made that handwriting !== cursive, and that equating the two is needlessly confusing. Handwriting is an action, whereas cursive is a form of writing. Do we call handwriting Japanese "cursive"? Of course not.

      Not the usual kind, but a cursive form does exist: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cursive_script_(East_Asia) https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cursive_script_(East_Asia)

        I'm aware, but the only people who write that today are calligraphers and monks. You think finding an average American that does cursive is hard, finding an average Japanese that does cursive is even harder. :V

          Can normal people read Japanese cursive?
