malinuo Posted December 11, 2005 at 07:58 PM Report Posted December 11, 2005 at 07:58 PM I think it is an interesting question, but I have no good answer. The "bubbly" handwriting of teenage girls is something I've seen in several languages that use the Latin alphabet. However, for Chinese I don't have that much experience. I have seen some children's paintings with 汉字 but none has struck me as particularly girly. Quote
Quest Posted December 11, 2005 at 08:34 PM Report Posted December 11, 2005 at 08:34 PM You can often guess if something's written by a teenage girl or boy. Girls usually write neater, tinier, narrower characters. Of course, there are exceptions. Quote
Catdiseased Posted December 11, 2005 at 09:45 PM Report Posted December 11, 2005 at 09:45 PM So true! I think that's right what quest said. ALthough I can only judge by Chinese character's written by Korean girls. But indeed, they are "neater" tinier and narrower. Kind of the opposite from what one is used to from "typical teenager girly latin alphabet handwriting" Quote
kirkweiss Posted August 2, 2006 at 06:58 PM Report Posted August 2, 2006 at 06:58 PM I know what you mean about bubbly. More than one teenage girl's English writing I've seen will have a heart shape for the dot on the i. This will usually be for personal correspondence though, not submitted for school work. Quote
