Numbers & habits

An open 4 or a closed 4?

One tiny gap. Two familiar ways to write a number.

To cross your 7, or not?

The little line that can start a very big debate.

A plain, slashed or dotted zero?

An oval, a slash or a dot: make a zero easier to recognize.

Letter anatomy

The two lives of lowercase a.

A circle and a stick, or a little roof on top?

Where does your g go?

A simple hook, a loop, or an unexpected second storey.

Symbols & flourishes

Your ampersand has a little history.

A whole word, folded into one very personal mark.

A little perspective

The fun part, and the science part.

What the letters show, and what a quiz cannot know.

Spacing & slant

Which way do your letters lean?

Follow the downstrokes, not the tilt of the notebook.

How much room do your words need?

Three kinds of space, and the one our quiz asks you to compare.

Start with the shape you actually write.

These guides focus on visible letter anatomy and simple paper exercises. The personality language belongs to the playful quiz, not to a scientific classification of people. Compare the examples with a real note before choosing a label. The complete chart is also available without finishing the test.
