Classify the following typefaces and briefly explain why you believe it should be classified that way:

This font is more Modern because its horizontal strokes are slightly thicker than its vertical strokes.

This would be a handwritten font because it appears as if someone actually wrote it themselves.

This font is definitely Decorative because instead of using it for body text, it seems like it's a more decorative font used for larger areas and big font sizes.

This font is Transitional because it is more rounded than the other fonts. 

This font would be considered Gothic because is resembles older european style. 

This font is Sans Serif because it does not contain any serifs.

Slab Serif because it is very basic but not too plain. It also has a very thick appearance.
