How to write 年
Japanese kanjiとしyear6 strokes
年 is a first-grade kanji meaning “year”, commonly read とし. It is written in 6 strokes.
Stroke order, step by step
The red stroke is the one to write next; the dot shows where it starts.
Now write it yourself
Trace over the outline with your finger, a stylus or the mouse. Each stroke is checked as you draw it.
Remember it, don't just copy it
Ink a Day brings 年 back tomorrow to write from memory, then again just before you'd forget it. Five minutes a day.
Practice Kanji, grade 1 daily年 is also used in Chinese, where it is read nián; stroke order can differ slightly between the two. See 年 in Chinese.
