How to write capital X
- Start at the top left and pull a curved downstroke to the bottom right.
- Lift and draw a second curved stroke from the top right to the bottom left, crossing the first.
- Lift the pen; X does not join the next letter.
How to write lowercase x
- Start at the baseline and rise to the midline.
- Pull a curved downstroke to the baseline and exit to the right.
- Add the crossing stroke through the middle after finishing the word.
Common mistakes
- A common slip is drawing x as two straight print strokes, which leaves a gap on both sides.
- With the capital, learners try to join it to the next letter; X ends with a stroke that stops, so lift the pen and start the next letter fresh.
Joining x to other letters
The x exits from the baseline with a short upstroke that becomes the entry stroke of the next letter.
