About the font
Neucha is a hand-drawn font by Jovanny Lemonad. The designer made the first version in 2005, in eight hours, for a single phrase: “I love you”, and later redrew it from scratch. The name is Russian for “one who never learned”: the font is deliberately uneven and warm.
Neucha has Russian Cyrillic, but only І among the Kazakh letters. Its 2021 Kazakh Latin is also missing characters: Ğ, İ, Ş and Ū. For Kazakh text, pick a similar font with the full set.
