How to Write Uppercase Cursive W
To write the uppercase cursive “W,” begin by drawing a tall vertical line starting from the baseline to the top line. Next, form a diagonal stroke from the top, slanting downward to the baseline on the left side. Draw another diagonal stroke upward from the baseline on the right side. Bring it down again in a smooth curve, creating the second half of the “W.” The two diagonals should meet neatly at the baseline, forming a sharp, flowing “W.”
