Cursive Letter I โ€” How to Write & Copy-Paste ๐’พ

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

Cursive i is a short up-and-down stroke with a dot added after the word or letter group. Despite its simplicity, i controls spacingโ€”too wide and words look loose; too narrow and it merges with n or u. Uppercase I may be a simple stroke or an ornate Spencerian form with entrance and exit flourishes. Students should practice dotted i rows after connecting letters so the rhythm of writing is not broken by stopping to dot mid-word.
