Other alphabets, one stroke at a time
Every letter in these alphabets is drawn on the same ruled-paper stage as the cursive and print letters: numbered start dots, arrows for direction, a tracing mode that scores your line, and a practice sheet to print.
Each letter page also gives the sound, an example word, and a note about the look-alikes that trip people up, such as the Greek Η, which is an e sound, or the Russian Р, which is an r.
Learning to write a script is different from learning to read it. Reading comes from seeing letters often; writing comes from the hand repeating the same strokes in the same order. Five minutes of tracing a day, with the order on screen, is enough to make most alphabets automatic in a couple of weeks.
Greek alphabet
Twenty-four letters, each with a capital and a lowercase form. Greek is the ancestor of the Latin and Cyrillic alphabets, so many capitals look familiar even though the sounds differ.
Russian alphabet
Thirty-three letters in the Cyrillic alphabet. Eleven look like Latin letters but sound different, and the page for each one warns you about it.
Korean alphabet
Hangul is built from 14 basic consonants, 5 double consonants, 10 vowels and 11 compound vowels, which are combined into square syllable blocks. The shapes are designed around the mouth, so they are quick to learn.
Hiragana alphabet
The 46 basic Japanese syllables in their rounded form, used for native words and grammar. Strokes follow the KanjiVG standard orders.
Katakana alphabet
The angular twin of hiragana, used for foreign words and names. Same 46 sounds, different shapes, with a stroke-by-stroke page for each.
Hebrew alphabet
Twenty-two block letters, written right to left. Several pairs look alike, so each page flags the look-alikes.
