First, the writing method
1, the stroke of the horizontal hook is actually a combination of horizontal writing and vertical left hook. One is that the inside is long, the vertical hook is short, the pen is long and horizontal, and then it is folded down and slightly tilted to the left. After making a short stroke on the hook, hook it to the upper left and write it down.
2. The other one has a shorter transverse fold and a longer vertical hook. Write a short horizontal line when writing, and fold it down after a short stroke. After making a short stroke on the hook, hook it to the upper left and write it down. The writing and usage of the two kinds of cross-folding hooks are different and cannot replace each other.
Second, matters needing attention
1. When writing strokes, the spacing should be even. In Chinese characters, many strokes are arranged continuously and evenly. The distance between one painting and another should be kept even, not big and small, tight and loose. For example, the word "Cao" has seven horizontal paintings, and the gap between the horizontal paintings should be even.
2. In the process of stroke teaching, students should know the shape, importance, urgency and essentials of strokes, so as to master the standard writing of each basic stroke.
The origin of strokes
1. Ancient descriptive symbols: The earliest Chinese characters originated from ancient descriptive symbols, which are pictures or hieroglyphics used to represent things. By simplifying and abstracting these pictures, people gradually formed the earliest Chinese characters.
2. Structural evolution: With the passage of time, the structure of Chinese characters has gradually evolved, from hieroglyphics (pictographs) to indicative characters (representing the characteristics or shapes of things), comprehensible characters (combining two or more symbols to express meaning), pictophonetic characters (using one radical to express meaning and the other to express sound), and then to later unique characters.
3. The concept of strokes: During the evolution of Chinese characters, people began to describe and write Chinese characters systematically with strokes (basic lines or writing order of strokes). The concept of strokes is widely used in Chinese dictionaries and writing norms.
4. Dictionary compilation: China ancient dictionaries, such as Shuowen Jiezi and Kangxi Dictionary, played an important role in recording and classifying a large number of Chinese characters, including the number of strokes and pronunciation of Chinese characters.
5. Modern Chinese characters: The writing norms and strokes of modern Chinese characters have been reformed and simplified many times. For example, the movement of simplified Chinese characters in the mid-20th century reduced the strokes of many Chinese characters and made writing more convenient.
