@ISBNS that is true, we typically don’t use cursive. Sometimes I do when signing my name (usually the only time you see cursive writing is when writing signatures or fancy invitations)

Yeah... I've seen people saying that it's not usual to write using cursive in the US. Is that true?

@ISBNS That is true. Most people don't use cursive except for their signature. In my opinion, it's almost always difficult to read. I do know some calligraphers that almost solely use cursive, but their handwriting is good to begin with. It's very easy to understand what they write.

It's true... If the people don't have a good cursive, that will be hard to understand. But I think is more easy, because is more fast to write.

@ISBNS I disagree with some of the other answers, as it depends on which type of school you attend and what age you are. Most (but not all) American public schools abandoned the teaching of cursive about 20 years ago, while many private schools still teach and enforce the usage of cursive. I attended a small private school and after 3rd grade I was not permitted to use any writing other than cursive. Most of the of the generations pre-millennial still use cursive as well.

If you mean print instead of cursive then yes, we usually write in lowercase. Sometimes it’s a bit in between cursive and lowercase though. Most people can read and probably also write in cursive.
In elementary school I had to write in cursive when we learned how to, but since then I don’t use it much, writing in lowercase/print is much faster for me.

No, I mean handwritten. Really? Do you use cursive in documents, letters, homework, etc ( When you print it)?

This would be writing in all caps. It’s done on documents, but also sometimes for writing in general. However we usually write in lowercase (obviously with the correct capitalizations) when writing things in everyday life.

@ISBNS That’s cursive, which is how most Americans don’t write.

Most Americans write in print, especially younger Americans, since cursive is typically not taught in schools anymore. Cursive writing is most common in people 35+, but a few (maybe like 1%?) of teenagers still do it too.

@ISBNS They stop teaching cursive in school here, but when I went to school <2000 they taught it.
