Even for the “Latin” script – some scholars prefer the term _roman script_ – there are several styles, variants or hands that have very distinct connotations (which may vary by context of course), although their strong local preference is almost gone, e.g. blackletter, uncial and insular for copyist and (early) letterpress texts. The look of fonts that fake handwriting very much depends on the simulated writing utensil and surface in all scripts. (The predominant medium informed *a lot* of glyph evolution.) This may be another kind of abstraction to derive generics from. -- GitHub Notification of comment by Crissov Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/4910#issuecomment-619375858 using your GitHub account
