The stroke order of Chinese characters is written from top to bottom and from left to right. The starting point of the rice character is located in the upper left corner and is written from top to bottom. First, write a horizontal straight line on the paper as the upper horizontal line of the character. The first stroke of the rice character is the horizontal line above, written from left to right. This horizontal stroke is generally short and is connected with the upper horizontal part.
Then there is the second stroke of the word Mi, a vertical straight line, written from top to bottom. This vertical straight line passes through the upper part. The last third stroke, the horizontal line below, is written from left to right. The intersection of this horizontal line and the vertical line is also the bottom horizontal line of the rice word.
When writing rice characters, we should pay attention to keeping the strokes smooth and tidy, keeping the writing center symmetrical and keeping the balance of the whole glyph. The thickness of strokes should be uniform to avoid obvious dislocation or uneven thickness. In practice, you can use copybooks or horizontal grid paper to help you master the stroke order and shape of rice characters.
Mizi is the simplest Chinese character with high recognition and readability, so it is widely used in design, logo and typesetting. The word "rice" is also one of the symbols of China's traditional culture. It is often used in combination with auspicious and longevity words, meaning happiness.

Stroke is the basic shape points and lines of Chinese characters, such as horizontal, vertical, left, pressed and folded. It is the smallest Lian Bi unit of Chinese characters, and it can also refer to the number of strokes. Traditional Chinese characters have eight basic strokes: point, horizontal, vertical, left-off, press, lift, fold and hook. Stroke sometimes refers to pictures with pen-and-ink strokes, which are generally used in ancient Chinese characters. People nowadays either use it often or don't.
The fonts of Chinese characters are divided into handwriting and printing. Handwriting refers to the handwritten form of characters, which is flexible and easy to express personal style. There are three kinds of calligraphy in modern China: regular script, cursive script and running script.
The strokes of handwritten Chinese characters are different due to the use of hard pen and soft pen, such as hard pen vertical strokes and soft pen vertical strokes, such as short vertical strokes, long vertical strokes, hanging needle strokes and vertical strokes.
