Practice Writing of Chinese Radicals With Two Sheets Of Papers

Finally I have found the article for this blog. I am sorry for not updating my blog for quite a long time. As always I convert my learning to text, photos and files. The topic is Chinese language but focused to Chinese character writing. It is helpful to the beginners who have felt that Chinese characters are difficult to be identified and remembered.

As we know if we are not Chinese, we must learn Pin Yin firstly to know pronunciation of Chinese language. Pin Yin is a set of the consonant and vowel sounds with tone marks of Chinese which are listed out in English in order to pronounce. That’s the reason why we can speak Chinese but we don’t know Chinese characters. Pin Yin is good to start but it should be continued with Chinese characters after all. (what about two sheets of papers?)

The first sheet of two sheets

To know more and remember Chinese characters, we have to gather and study the information mentioned below.

1 Stroke names and stroke order

2 Radicals (214 radicals and more than 214 when including variants)

3 A vocabulary’s structure

The different strokes have their own names and they have to be combined into characters under the rule of stroke order. And the number of strokes of each character is the first index of three key indexes of dictionary applications. The second index is Radical.

214 Radicals are the root vocabularies of Chinese characters. A vocabulary’s structure allows any radical to be a part of the word or to be the complete word. Therefore, the radical index onto the dictionary is built up together with the number of strokes index.  However, if we can write it down onto the dictionary we will have the easiest way, which is the most important index, to look for the meaning of the new vocabulary.

As the result, the skill of Chinese radical writing is essential for us. To get the success of that skill, I offer you two sheets of papers. Although they are two sheets, they are filled up with all radicals (simplified) for you to practice your writing. And the accurate practice depends on your knowledge of radicals’ stroke order as mentioned above.

You have just overwritten all radicals on two sheets with or without pencil based on the correct strokes and the stroke order. You can repeat the process to the same sheets as many as you want. You can carry them away with you to practice writing whenever you have a spare time.

I hope that all would be simple and easy for you to achieve the writing skill at last.

Enjoy!
