We know that everyone has their own way to write or do something. Whether they use the right hand or left hand. Todays left-hand people is not a shame thing. I like to see people who use his left hand to write.
This the fact, I can't never forget it. I have a neighbour, he has stroke a 8 years ago. His right-hand can be move again. So he train it everyday and must do anything with his left hand. Now, he can draw and write with his left-hand after 8 years train it. He can draw a famous painting and have one of a newspaper publish his drawing. Unbeleiveable
Now, I try to learn write or do anything with my left hand. I hope someday I can use my left-hand to write as good as my right hand. And prevent me, if I have a same sickness like my neighbour, So I no need again to train hard my left hand to write or draw something.
So, Do you use your right hand or left hand write ? And Do you ever think to train your other hand to write as good as your recent used hand ?

I'm left handed.
Years ago, I had a cycling accident and sprained my left wrist in 2 places. I had to learn to write with my right hand, but I also had to learn how to use some power tools and saws with my right as I was taking a maintenance course, and it was hands on.
It was amazing how fast I learned how to be proficient with my opposite hand.

I am used to write with my right hand only. I cannot do a good job with the left hand since I have been trained to use the right hand as a kid. Good day.

Hi winzpc,
I only use my right hand to write and do many things, but that is very intestting what you are saying, if we all train our left to write and do many things with it we won't have a problem if ans should anything happens, good idea I'll start traning my left hand soon.

I can only write with my right hand. I've tried to write with my left hand before but it just looks like a lot of gibberish and random squiggles sometimes. There's no point in my trying to write with that hand really. I do everything with my right hand so there's no point in me trying to write with another hand right now.

I use my right hand- The way people look while writing with their left hand looks odd to me- I do think it is a good idea to learn how to write with my left hand incase I loose the ability to write with my right-

Wow, I did not know that you can train your hands I thought you were born to know how to use one hand and not the other.
Well I am a righty and I be lost without my right hand.
My daughter is a lefty and it is difficult for her in school since things seem to look and done backward for her.
Does typing count? He ~ he ~ I can type with both hands. I can cook with both hands but I cannot write with both hands. LOL

I can only write with my right hand. I've tried to write with my left and I must say that I've gotten better of the years. But even so I have really bad handwriting with my right hand, lol. Either way I lose, I guess. I try to use both hands so I can make them both equally usable. One can train to write with the opposite hand, but it may take some time. It feels weird writing with my left, kind of like it's numb.

i use my right hand to write... but i never underestimate or look down on people who use their left hand to write... in fact, i admire them as it is harder to do things with left hands rather than right hands if i can say... no matter what, they are still humans and whether they write by right or left hands didn't make any difference... take care and have a nice day...

I am using my right hand on writing. My son and my xhusband is using their left hand on writing. Most of us using right and it is says that is the right way to use on writing. But my there are some who are left handed, they find their self very comfortable on using it. So as a mother, i just let my son used his left hand either.

I use my right hand to write. I have few times tried to learn writing with my left hand but I didn't have enough patience so I've didn't achive anything. Most of people I know use right hand to write and don't think about training their left hand. But my father can write with both of his hands.
