I and İ
How do Turkish speakers, and also speakers of other languages that contain those letters, distinguish between the two in handwriting? Do they initially have to get accustomed to putting the dot everytime when writing i's, or there's another way to tell them apart?

We always put the dot and accustomed by doing that. I İ
You know german has U and Ü. This is just a further step than that. And Turkish don't have any diacritics.

In the Turkish language, the letters with dots and the letters without dots have different sounds. So Turkish kids would never mix up the two when learning how to write. Like even though "ç" and "c" look similar, "ç" makes a "ch" sound and "c" makes "j" sound.
If you mix them up it's usually not a big deal, but there are some words that you should be extra careful with. Like "sıkıldım" means "I am bored", but if you change the "ı"s to "i"s it would be a swear word.
Here are some other words that I could come up with, these are some that you wouldn't be understood if you spell them wrong. They are not offensive as the first example I gave :D
kurt - a wolf
Kürt - a Kurd
cam - glass
çam - pine
şal - shawl
sal - raft
öl! - Die!
ol! - Become!

Wow!!!! Great question.. Do you know the rules of capitalization?
I and i.
This - I - is the capitalized version of - i - .
examples: internet. ice cream. igloo..
Words (person, place) that need to be capitalized:
I (me) Isabelle (a girl's name), Idaho, Illinois (those are states in the US)
So, a sentence, Isabelle loves ice cream.
The small letter is - i - and the big letter is - I - .
Does that make sense?
