Some CJ Roundhand Ligatures

Roundhand, regardless of the variant, is a durable and attractive cursive style on its own. But over the centuries it was the primary everyday form of writing, folks came up with some shortcuts: ways of putting two (or more) letters together and treating them as one. In other words, ligatures.
CJ Roundhand doesn't use a lot of ligatures, but these four have been folded in from the start. That they were also common during roundhand's heyday demonstrates how useful they can be.

The "th" is probably my favourite ligature. Awesome vid!

[@MrSpruce]

It's phenomenal how much of a difference these series of videos have made to my handwriting... My writing used to look kinda pretty but it was vague and difficult to read back. Now I'm very happy with my handwriting.

"all the cool kids" :-D Thanks for the tips, I owe you!

[@ProximaCentauri88]

Wow. That is also how I do my H. Our handwriting are actually similar except that yours is regular and has a very classic look which I love.

This tutorial is AMAZING! I just realized the "th" ligature today! And the "ff" ligature is awesome.
Could you upload more very common ligatures like "Th" (The), "Ch & ch" (Chapter & cheer), and "Tr & tr" (Trip & try)? Thank you!
