Abstract
HAND WRITING is obviously a form of individual expression by hand gesture; no two children who have been taught to write from the same copy and even by the same teacher will ultimately develop identical handwritings. The differences in handwriting must, therefore, be due to personal characteristics—manual, aesthetic, emotional or intellectual—of the writers themselves.
