<< review queue entry 58639 - submitted by 'richwarm' >> Yves wrote: 印刷体 means "print" as in "write your name in print" But our def implies that 印刷体 are letters produced by printing technology rather than by hand. The Wp def of "block letters" suggests that what PLC and K say ("block letter(s)") is not wrong. Wp @ block letters "Block letters (known as printscript, manuscript, print writing or ball and stick in academics) are a sans-serif (or "gothic") style of writing Latin script in which the letters are individual glyphs, with no joining. In English-speaking countries, children are often first taught to write in block letters, and later may advance to cursive (joined) writing." However, AHD says a block letter is a capital letter ~ "A plain capital letter written or printed unjoined to a following or preceding letter." ... which is what I thought. So I'd avoid using "block letters" in the def of 印刷体. |
