Chinese calligraphy encompasses several styles, with the main types being Seal Script (Zhuanshu), Clerical Script (Lishu), Regular Script (Kaishu), Running Script (Xingshu), and Cursive Script (Caoshu). Seal Script is characterized by its intricate and artistic strokes, while Clerical Script features more simplified and uniform characters. Regular Script is the most commonly used style today due to its clarity, while Running Script allows for more fluidity and speed in writing. Cursive Script is the most abstract and expressive, often used for artistic purposes.
