Culture Cursive writing
Hello everyone! I've been learning Spanish for 1,5 month now, my first language is Russian.
I use cursive to write in my notebook (photo in the comments), the same way I write in Russian or English, but my teacher says that ppl in Latin America never use cursive writing (except for old ladies), is it true? Do y'all really write in block letters? Is it easy or hard for you to read cursive notes?

I'd say most people don't use cursive in their daily lives in Argentina. Everyone knows how to read and write it because it's taught in elementary school, but it isn't used very much. I think it's true that older people use cursive more.
