Spanish Handwriting Clarified

Here are some examples of handwriting mostly from Latin-American nations. They can be beneficial to those who are working with exotic Hispanic handwriting. This will show an actual example, followed by what clarifies that name or word. Most of these examples are first letter puzzles.

Here is the letter D. The handwritten Hispanic lower-case 'd' very often has a very short stem...But, look at how the 'd' looks in line 3, like an o with a separated stem Eduardo is like: E ol uar lo  and Fernandez is like Fernan ol ez, that really is a 'd', not 'ol'   also, see how the 'd' sometimes wraps its stem off to the upper-left as in da Manuela in the first line.



Here are the letters M and N. Note that sometimes they crossed the capital M like we cross a 't' (see Merida crossed in 4th line and Juliana Morada, 6th line) See also the last entry of 4th line, de Manl. That "de" (of) features a really, really short-stemmed 'd'...abbreviated 'de Manuel' The handwritten Hispanic lower-case 'd' very often has a very short stem.

There's more coming, this is a work in progress
