How to write found in cursive

  1. 1Write f, o, u, n, d as one continuous stroke, joining each letter to the next without lifting the pencil.
Strokes: 1Pencil lifts: 0Letters: 5

Keep o, u, and n small — they live between the baseline and the midline. Let f and d climb toward the topline. f dips under the baseline before swinging back up.

How the letters in found connect

Follow the joins as you write found: f ends on an undercurve that carries into the downcurve opening of o; o ends on a checkstroke that carries into the undercurve opening of u; u ends on an undercurve that carries into the overcurve opening of n; n ends on an undercurve that carries into the downcurve opening of d.
