How the cursive x works — joins, family, and the usual mistake

X is an overcurve-family letter (m, n, v, x, y, z) and the family's only pen-lift. Crossing immediately instead of at word's end chops the writing rhythm — save every cross and dot for the finish.

The cursive capital X

The cursive capital X is two sweeping curved strokes that cross at the center — larger and rounder than the lowercase, crossed the same way.
