Shapes of English Characters


English Letters 
While working on Marathi letters to find similarity of shapes, I thought that such analysis can be applied to english characters also. It can be useful for kids learning English for the first time. English alphabet has two types of characters Capital Letters and small letters. English numbers are same for both scripts.



Capital Letters -

A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z

 They can be grouped as follows

 Vertical line   - I

Small horizontal line -  E F H L T

Slant line -  V W X

Vertical / Slant line - M N K Y

Vertical, Horizontal & Slant line  - A  Z

Big Curve - D C G U

Small letters 

a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z

Small shape of  Capital letters - c  o p s v w x z
