Hilariously, my handwriting was frequently described by teachers as "как курица лапой" which is just about the equivalent of your description.
Despite my terrible handwriting though, I still enjoy writing by hand. I've found I rarely ever end up going back to much of what I wrote down, but the whole process of turning thought into word into writing is very therapeutic and helpful for remembering and processing things.
- gambiting 4y agoIt might be a Slavic thing, in Polish bad handwriting is called "piszesz jak kura pazurem" which means "you write like a hen(would) with its claw".
- Anarch157a 4y agoHere in Brazil we say "parece titica de galinha" (looks like chicken shit). Seem like a universal thing, comparing bad hand writing with chickens...

My turn of phrase wasn't entirely original, I'm Greek and we call handwriting like mine "chicken scrawlings". So basically what I wrote :)
