Cursive Letter F — How to Write & Copy-Paste 𝒻

By Alex Rivera · Last updated August 2, 2026 · Last tested: July 28, 2026

Cursive f is a full-height letter: it climbs to the ascender line and often drops below the baseline with a descender loop. That dual span makes f a challenge for beginners and a signature flourish for calligraphers. School scripts differ—some use a simple crossbar-style join, while decorative styles prefer a continuous looped stem. Uppercase F may stand alone with two horizontal arms or flow as a sweeping Spencerian form. Learning f correctly improves words like of, for, and from that appear constantly in English.

    Descender loop: Retrace downward through the baseline and form a small loop below the line.
  3. 3
    Cross or exit: Return to midline height and exit right; add a light cross if your method requires it.

    Capital F: For uppercase F, use a tall stem with two rightward arms or a single ornamental Spencerian stroke.

How to connect F to the next letters

Exit f at mid-height into a, e, or o. Avoid dragging the descender loop into the next letter—finish the loop before the connector begins.
