<p> | ||
The Dutch-French language divide in Belgium, a phenomenon with roots stretching back to the Middle Ages, continues to be relevant in the country today. | ||
Traditions of handwriting education exemplify this circumstance and reflect the country's historical ties to France and the Netherlands. | ||
Regardless of the handwriting model adopted, students learn print-style script letters in kindergarten and progress to connected letters in primary school. | ||
In Flanders, there is a preference for sloped continuous cursive writing, reminiscent of Dutch handwriting models, whereas the French-speaking community in the | ||
<a href="https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Playwrite+BE+WAL"> | ||
Walloon region opts for upright cursive writing | ||
</a> | ||
, a style that enjoys popularity in France. | ||
This diversity in handwriting education is a direct response to Belgium's rich linguistic culture, leading to the introduction of a second official language early in the school years. | ||
</p> | ||
<p> | ||
Playwrite België Vlaams Gewest is a variable font with a weight range from Thin (100) to Regular (400), and supports over 150 Latin-based languages. | ||

<h4> | ||
Playwrite België Vlaams Gewest characteristics | ||
</h4> | ||
<p> | ||
This style is a slanted, fully connected continuous cursive. | ||
It features decorative capital letters, some of which, like 'A', closely resemble a cursive structure. | ||
The extenders are of medium length, enhancing the fluidity. | ||
'T' and 'Z' are designed with a crossbar, while 'X' includes loops that facilitates continuous writing without lifting the pen. | ||
The 'S' maintains a straight spine. | ||
The lowercase 'f' features only a top loop, connecting from its crossbar, and the 't' has a crossbar that extends only to the right, giving it a distinctive appearance. | ||
</p> | ||

<p> | ||
Playwrite België Vlaams Gewest appears in font menus with a two-letter country code ‘BE’ and a the ‘VLG’ abbreviation | ||
<i> | ||
Playwrite BE VLG | ||
</i> | ||
. | ||
It features four styles: Thin, ExtraLight, Light, and Regular. | ||

<h3> | ||
Playwrite fonts for schools | ||
</h3> | ||
<p> | ||
The Playwrite school fonts are based on the findings of Primarium, a groundbreaking educational effort that documents the history and current practice of handwriting models taught to primary school students worldwide. | ||
This typographic engine serves teachers, educators, and parents by generating localized libre fonts. | ||
These Playwrite fonts are complemented by | ||
<a href="https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Playpen+Sans"> | ||
Playpen Sans | ||
</a> | ||
, an informal and fun typeface designed for annotations, instructions, and student notes – that also includes emojis. | ||
