The stroke order table for the second volume of the first grade: Stroke order
The stroke order rules of Chinese characters are: first horizontally and then vertically (for example: "干"), first with strokes and then with strokes (for example: "八") ), from top to bottom (e.g. "main"), from left to right (e.g. "forest"), first and then close (e.g. "field"), first from the middle and then both sides (e.g. "water"), from outside To the inside (such as: "back") and so on.
For example, in the word "zhan", the stroke order is 丿,丿丨,丿丨一,丿丨一丿,丿丨一丿乀. Stroke order is related to the speed of writing and the quality of fonts to a certain extent. Stroke order is also important during exams. There are differences in the traditional stroke order of Chinese characters and the standard stroke order in various regions. The stroke order standard in Mainland China is the "Modern Chinese Common Character Stroke Order Standards".
Today, the governments of Mainland China, Taiwan, and Japan each have their own stroke order standards for school teaching. The stroke order rules followed by these standards are roughly the same, but there are differences and they are not completely consistent with the traditional stroke order. The reason why these standards differ from traditional stroke order is due to the needs of school teaching. If the stroke order is too complicated or there are many exceptions, students may feel overwhelmed.
Traditional stroke order: Traditional stroke order was widely used in ancient times and is still used in the Chinese character culture circle today. The users are mainly scholars who know calligraphy, so it is also called the stroke order of calligraphy. By studying calligraphy works before the Republic of China, especially the works of famous calligraphers, it can be concluded that the stroke order has been recognized. Most of these stroke orders follow word origin, glyph structure, glyph changes or ancient methods. Many characters have multiple variants (that is, multiple ways of writing them). The stroke order can be changed with the change of the fonts Zhuan, Li, Zhen, Xing and Cao.
