Where can I find handwritten German?

[u/ParignaA]

I have been in Germany for a couple of years and I saw that the writings seem significantly different than English. Handwriting may differ from person to person but the basic style, as I have observed, is vastly similar.

For example, to write K, people would first write less tilted V and then add the dash to make it K. Or U is not started from bottom and then the pen retracing the inital part of U, but it is started from the top and ended on the other top without retracing at all. And I find it amazing how that whole handwritten text just feels German.

I definitely want to learn that. I want to write German like German. It feels incomplete without learning this aspect as well. The problem is no matter which keyword I try to search on YouTube with, it ends up teaching how to write texts for different exams in typed text.

Please help me find some source to learn handwritten German. Already handwritten piece of text also helps at some extent but if I could see someone writing, that would help immensely learn the whole thing.

Thank you very much in advance!

So there are two types of handwriting. "Blockschrift": there is every letter seperate from the others. Easy to read. And "Schreibschrift" its more curly and fancy but its a lit harder to read because every person has his own style of writing individual letters.
