What are the styles of English letters?

As shown in the figure:

Fancy English is an English font category, which belongs to domestic calligraphy, and there is no such font classification abroad. Generally, it is considered to be copperplate font, round font or Spencer, which is more common in film letters and cover decoration.

According to Jason Stoneheart, cursive style is an improper translation of "decorative calligraphy", which means decoration in English, not font. However, in the use of history, "decorative calligraphy" is often used to refer to "Spencer" and its variants. "Copperplate" and "Spencer" are two similar fonts, both of which use decorative words. When the word "Hua Ti" was introduced into China, it was translated into Hua Ti because of its unclear concept, and its scope was larger than "Hua Ti". In China, cursive script is usually used to refer to "copperplate book" and "Spencer book". Because "English circle" is sometimes called "copper plate" in foreign countries, and copper plate is actually a copper plate, so the concept of flower body and "round body" also overlap.
