How to Write a Cursive Capital J β€” Step by Step

1Start just below the top line. Make a small decorative loop or curve to the right.
2Pull your pen downward in a long stroke, going below the baseline into the descender zone.
3At the bottom, curve to the left in a smooth loop.
4Bring the stroke back up slightly and finish with an exit curve pointing right.

πŸ’‘ Key tip: The cursive capital J has a long descender loop that drops below the baseline. Make this loop generous and smooth β€” a small or tight loop looks cramped.

How to Write a Lowercase Cursive j β€” Step by Step

1Begin at the midline. Make a straight downstroke going below the baseline.
2At the bottom of the descender, curve to the left in a small loop.
3Return the stroke slightly upward.
4Add a dot directly above the main stroke at the midline.

πŸ’‘ Key tip: The lowercase cursive j has two key features: a descender loop below the baseline and a dot above. Never forget the dot β€” and make sure the descender loop curves all the way to the left.
