Can You Still Write By Hand? | Handwriting Is An Endangered Skill
Handwriting
A Skill On The Brink Of Extinction
Hi Steemians,
How are you doing today? I hope I meet you in good health and happiness today.
Today’s video is about what I think is quickly becoming a lost art, or rather, skill.
When I was a kid in school, writing was one of the disciplines I had to learn. It was considered a life skill - much like mathematics and spoken language. Not only the ability to write, but the skill of writing itself.
From pencil to biro, there was a defined path which every child must thread to arrive at the aim of being a competent writer. In the mean time, picking up other mental skills like spelling, deep comprehension and good grammar.
In this age, computers have largely taken over most of that. Typing is just about at its peak right now, probably soon to be replaced by voice dictation. I can say handwriting - or at least the skill of good handwriting - is desperately endangered. If it does become extinct, I fear it will take along with it the ability to spell and construct proper, grammatically correct sentences, without the aid of artificial intelligence.
Shoutout to my @dtubedaily crew. Nobody does it like we do.
Peace and Love ✌🏿

It is an endangered skill for sure thanks to tech but on the flip side, I think it's going to come with a lot more good.
Cleaner air for us to breathe.
Interesting way of looking at it actually. I guess it means less paper, which is a good thing.
It is seriously funny that last time and it was like week ago I was trying write a small letter and it was hard as hell! So it was exactly just like you did experience, hand writing just go out of touch.
But, I am much worry about future of writing skills. Since some schools already are changing paper for tablets as well we have e-learning, younger generations might not even know how to use a pencil......
:) I feel your pain bro. I've decided to start writing more regularly by hand again. It's such a great art and its about to go the way of the northern white rhino :(
I get pain now too. I’m a pen lover, all types of pens but particularly fountain pens. The thing is that I hardly write any more, so the pen collecting has kinda stopped now. It’s a shame, but I just can’t find where writing fits into my life very much now. I ain’t selling my favourite pens though!
I have a couple of fountain pens too. I never really got the hang of writing with them. My handwriting always looked a little wonky. There's some kind of calligraphic technique to it.
My handwriting es perfecto still but the spelling part totally not ok anymore..
LOL
