How to Write Cursive Capital N
Stroke Instructions
Start at the baseline. Make an upward stroke to the top line. From the top, come down to the baseline in a hump, then back up to the top line. Come back down to the baseline with the exit stroke. Like capital M but with one fewer hump.
Tips for Success
- Similar to M but with just one hump between the tall strokes
- Both peaks should reach the top line
- The hump should be smooth and rounded
- Keep it distinct from M by having clearly one fewer hump
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Adding an extra hump (that makes it an M)
- The peaks being uneven
- Not reaching the full top line height
