How the letters in Giovanni connect

4 of Giovanni's 6 joins leave the letter on an undercurve. The exceptions are o-v, where o ends on a checkstroke that carries into the overcurve opening of v and v-a, where v ends on a checkstroke that carries into the downcurve opening of a. Remember: the capital G stands alone, so lift the pencil before the next letter.
