Any websites that illustrate how to write the letters of the English alphabet?

Tuesday, February 9th, 2010

Particularly, I’m interested in script (cursive handwriting, where the letters are connected). I have problems with some of my letters, as I think they’re kind of messy when I write them cursively. Anyone know any sites that teach you how to write those letters properly?

Here’s a site:

Click on the links for "animation" to see exactly how the letters should be written. It’s really neat!

What letter in the English Alphabet is pronounced false and why?

Tuesday, October 13th, 2009

Perception vs Con-ception: When i wuz (was) of the age 14 i
learned that the meaning of the word Alphabet does not mean or implies in any way 26 letters but only two. What would be those two letters and why? The English Alphabet pronounces one letter for what it iz (is) not, even when you perceptionally see the letter for what it should be pronunced yet we do not pronounce it in any English word. Why iz that?

It is the lettter W. It even sounds like another letter. hint hint.
alpha beta. alphabet. Greek. Those are the first two letters A and B. Even in Hebrew it is aleph, bet . And W looks like a double V not U. But I think that is because it was not in our original alphabet. The ancient Greeks did not have a U.
