People be writing words with the letters all connected in cursive so the quill didn’t have to lift up or whatever.

How come they didn’t do that with the digits in numbers?

      The two and zero aren’t connected in this either. I am coming to accept that numbers are not connected in cursive. And elsewhere in the thread, it is said that this is done for clarity. So thank you, Mr. Snark, for your contribution. Even if you did not intend to contribute and just wanted to dunk on me.

        Someone providing you information showing your assumptions were incorrect in a straightforward and neutral manner is not dunking on you.

            So far, you have provided zero examples of cursive numbers.

            You have shown me cursive letters that are connected and numbers that are written in the context of cursive letters but which are not connected.
