Yeah… it’s going to be hard to convince me that a literate person is going to be unable to discern a menu because it’s in cursive and they only know print. I’ve been able to get the gist of menus in different languages just from a common Latin base.
I’m from the UK, I don’t think I’ve ever heard people talk about cursive writing at all. When I was in primary we learnt joined up writing which I don’t thinks the same. I have never seen a menu in NI that wasn’t typed and printed and the UK doesn’t even have a written constitution either.

Also, the idea of using a method of writing meant to make writing faster in a printed menu is ridiculous. Pure wankery.

Pretty sure Americans just call that cursive. Where I’m from cursive is just this, so it used to confuse me too.
