Explanation of Chinese character strokes

The types of Chinese character strokes refer to the classification of basic strokes that make up Chinese characters. According to traditional classification methods, the types of Chinese character strokes can be divided into eight major categories, namely: horizontal, vertical, left-falling, right-falling, dot, lifting, hook, and turning. Here is a brief explanation of each type of stroke:

Horizontal: A straight line segment from left to right, such as the character "一".

Vertical: A vertical line segment from top to bottom, such as the character "丨".

Left-falling: A line segment that falls from top to bottom and slants to the left, such as the character "丿".

Right-falling: A line segment that falls from top to bottom and slants to the right, such as the character "乀".

Dot: A small dot, such as the character "丶".

Lifting: A line segment that falls from top to bottom and bends to the right, such as the character "㇀".

Hook: A hook shape formed at the end of a stroke, such as the character "亅".

Turning: A shape where the stroke turns in the middle, such as the character "乛".

These types of strokes can be combined to form complex Chinese characters, each composed of different strokes. Understanding the types of Chinese character strokes is very important for writing and recognizing Chinese characters.
