In the good old days, when to writegoose feathers were used, which had to be dipped in ink; putting blots on paper was easier than ever. It was enough to gape a little, not completely shake off the pen, or just inaccurately pull the hand, and the letter was spoiled.

Learning everything new is much more interesting if you do it together.
