Cursive Letter S โ How to Write & Copy-Paste ๐
By Alex Rivera ยท Last updated August 2, 2026 ยท Last tested: July 28, 2026
Cursive s is a compact, wave-like formโnot the printed snake shape many adults default to. It usually starts with an undercurve, rises into a small closed or nearly closed top, and exits along the baseline. Uppercase S is a larger double curve used constantly in signatures. Because s ends many English words, a stable exit stroke keeps sentence endings tidy. Decorative fonts exaggerate s into dramatic swashes; school script keeps it modest.

How to connect S to the next letters
Connect s into t, h, or e carefullyโthe exit should not add an extra hump. At word ends, stop cleanly without a trailing flick.
