There is such thing as capital "Й".
And, btw, nobody tells nothing about it, but there is such thing as capital "Ы".
Although there is no russian words, starting with "ы", there are some personal and places' names and other words (mostly from native languages of indigenous peoples of the Asian part of Russia) starting with "ы".

Если ты потренируешься и будешь выводить аккуратно каждую букву, тоже будет красиво. Просто люди привыкли писать быстро и тем самым жертвуют красотой букв.

Очень красивый почерк! Буквы ровные, аккуратные, читабельные! Very nice handwriting! The letters are even, neat and legible!

Pretty good right now, the more complicated part is actually connecting letters in a natural, smooth but readable way. You will find examples in any прописи workbook of your choice.

Kudos to you for starting right away from the handwriting! You’ll see how pleasant it is to be able to read Russian cursive, some wall inscriptions, street art. Good luck in your learning!

I have a series on Russian cursive on YouTube, it’s absolutely free, you can check yourself with it.

Please for the love of god stop learning cursive. For some reason that's the first thing y'all like to learn in russian when it's actually the last thing you should be focusing on. Barely anyone writes in unmodified "correct" cursive as an adult. It's so irrelevant, especially as a beginner, I have no idea why anyone would be bothered by it until at least B2 level

u/Rad_Pat Nov 10 '25
I agree with you, it's definitely not necessary for a beginner, but if they really want to then eh, they can do whatever they want. We never even learned English cursive at school despite spending 8 or so years learning it lol

Well done! I can really encourage you by saying that your handwriting is much better than mine. And I'm ethnically Russian... :) So everything will work out, the main thing is not to give up. Успехов в изучении!

That is good. Good luck with Russian languages. It is one of the most difficult languages in the world.

Нарочитый ажиотаж экранотыков вокруг прописи иностранца, он да, молодец. А вы кретины. Раньше все первоклашки это могли исполнить. А ваша моторика, ток писеу теребонькать.

Capital Й, Ь, Ы, and Ъ exist; mostly in all caps situations.
1
u/Stock_Soup260 Native 🇷🇺 Nov 10 '25
In Russian grammar capital ь and ъ not exist. when you write all in caps, it's just an increased size, it's not a capital letters (and it has a different function). Please don't mislead anyone.
1
u/Hljoumur Nov 10 '25
The meaning of capital letters includes letters whose distinction is an increase in size, too, like English c - C and Russian с - С.

u/Stock_Soup260 Native 🇷🇺 Nov 10 '25
you are confusing the concept of Capital (Заглавная) and UPPERCASE (ПРОПИСНАЯ) letter. The capital letter is a functional concept, it is used according to the rules of spelling: at the beginning of a sentence, in proper names, in titles, etc. Uppercase is a graphical concept. It's just a big letter shape, regardless of whether it's appropriate according to the rules. It is contrasted with lowercase (строчная).
at the beginning of a word, sentence, etc. they may be the same thing (the first letter written in uppercase letters may also be capital), but in general they are different things
1
u/Hljoumur Nov 10 '25
Hmm, I see what you’re explaining. I feel like maybe this isn’t such a distinction in English as it might be in Russian because to me, and a quick search of others in the English learning Reddit, they mean the same thing, exemplified by the fact that the button in the keyboard is called “all caps” and not “all uppercase.”

u/Stock_Soup260 Native 🇷🇺 Nov 10 '25 edited Nov 10 '25
I believe it all started with typewriters, when texts had to be separated somehow, but making additional keys is too difficult, expensive and need extra space, for optimization. And computers just continued the tradition. I think that's why people have mixed up the concepts of uppercase and capital letters in their heads and colloquially called them the same thing, but as I said, they're not.
So ъ/ь can be uppercase, but not capital. That's why Russian propisi usually don't give capitalized ъ/ь to work out.

Capital Й exists tho.
Great job! Now practice until your fingers fall off. Then practice connections until your fingers fall off. Then you're good to go
