Cursive Letter P β€” How to Write & Copy-Paste 𝓅

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

Cursive p drops below the baseline: a stem descends into a descender zone, then a bowl forms to the right at mid-height before exiting. It is common in English and important for signature practice. Uppercase P typically shows a tall stem and a single upper bowl. Students often print p by accident; continuous stroke practice keeps it in the cursive family. Unicode script p (𝓅 / 𝓹) is widely supported for copy-paste names.
