Semi-cursive script is a style of writing that blends elements of both cursive and regular script. It is characterized by its fluid, connected letters, which allow for faster writing while maintaining legibility. This script is often used in calligraphy and is popular among students learning to write more quickly. This writing style is particularly common in Chinese calligraphy, where it is known as "xingshu." Semi-cursive script allows for artistic expression while still being practical for everyday use. It serves as a bridge between the more formal regular script and the more free-flowing cursive script.
