Lefties tend to back-slant while righties more often slant forward. Back-slant is a natural result of having to keep your wrist higher off the paper so you can still see what you're writing (and avoid smudging it.) I'd imagine the opposite is likely the case for Arabic or Hebrew, but that's just guessing. | |
